I'm listening to Marlow's Pachelbel, feeling all the tension leaving my body. Thank you for that one, Marlow.

Katica Illényi on Theremin - Once Upon a Time in the West
[Click to View YouTube Video]
The theremin (/ˈθɛrəmɪn/; originally known as the ætherphone/etherphone, thereminophone or termenvox/thereminvox) is an electronic musical instrument controlled without physical contact by the thereminist (performer). It is named after the Westernized name of its Soviet inventor, Léon Theremin (Термéн), who patented the device in 1928.
The instrument's controlling section usually consists of two metal antennas that sense the relative position of the thereminist's hands and control oscillators for frequency with one hand, and amplitude (volume) with the other. The electric signals from the theremin are amplified and sent to a loudspeaker.

Great playing. I am confronted with the boundaries of my existence. Maybe I have a multitasking problem. I am not able to watch and listen simultaneously. I have to close my eyes to listen.

The music police: I think it has been a little too much pump and glitter lately for Gary...

Improvisation is not limited to jazz.

Here's a picture of the organ, built in 1862, by Cavaille-Col. Of course everything about it other than a modern air supply is mechanical. The console is therefore in the organ, behind the clock.
St. Sulpice, Paris.
Did I tell you that I love friggin' pipe organs?

Not much improvisation involved here, but you find the Alps...
