This fascinating instrument was the world’s very first electronic instrument, invented in 1920 by Russian scientist Lev Theremin. Listen to Over The Rainbow:

In the heady days of early science fiction movies, the Theremin would provide the “Ooooh-EEEEE-oooooh” sounds of spaceships flitting about in the sky. Finally watch another historical video of Johnny Carson playing THEREMIN:

I love the eerie sound of this electronic music instrument. What about you?
