[sdiy] Theremin concert Amsterdam

[Wout Blommers]

Hi,

For those able to visit:

Saturday May 26 at 15:00 
at the Stedelijk Museum
Paulus Potterstraat 13
Amsterdam   The Netherlands
(admission 5 Euro or 'museumkaart')

Eric Ross will perform using a Big Briar Theremin.

I visited a concert by Mr. Ross last monday
and I was very impressed. (Cem Café Sonore)
First of all there aren't much Theremin concerts lately ;-)
Mr. Ross is using today's techniques, like delays and WahWah pedal,
which makes the sound much more interesting.
A wonderful technique is 'gliding the delays into the same note'.
The fine gestures playing the instrument stay, of course.

The CD's which are sold during the concert are worthwhile too.
(So bring some extra Euro's with you - Live at Berlin JazzFest is
a very good one - Sun Ra and Miles Davis like)

A marvelous effect occurred when a technician walked in front of the
Theremin... "ooooWUUWaaaab" ;-)
