That's one of the best phrases I've ever heard in reference to the
instrument. 

That's one of the things that to me sets the theremin apart. The most
transparent instrument -- it can sing, scream, holler, chant, have a
psychotic episode, sound like a cello, buzz, bellow, have hysterics -- react
to what you do in the most elemental way. There's nothing like it for pure
expression, except the human voice.
