expressive technique.

New to the theremin? Your pitch hand positioning is very important.

For those just starting out; find the optimum position for your body relative to the placement
of the theremin. This is a crucial step in finding the most comfortable and productive stance.

With hands in the spotlight, here’s another, more challenging lesson (in two parts) that demands
a change in perception and more much intent listening as you play. A great way to practice
any song you want to work on.

Building on Part 1 (from “Fundamentals,”) each successive lesson brings us closer to
