In her own words, a brief history of Clara Rockmore's life with the Theremin. Also discussion with electronic music experts Robert Moog and Thomas Ray.
This is a wonderful tale of "crisis equals opportunity" When she ceased playing the violin because of advancing arthritis, Clara finds the perfect outlet for her artistry.

For your amusement there is a link to a computerized thermin simulator in the Playground at my website: On the swingset, click on "spnm playground", then Clara.
Enjoy!
