For those of you interested in unusual treatments of the theremin, you 
should go over and visit Michael Evans's page.  He has a couple of songs 
on his web site featuring theremin in non traditional settings.  One has 
it processed so that it sounds to me almost like a trumpet, and another 
where he uses it with such rock-solid drones without vibrato that I'm 
impressed anyone could hold their hand that steady.
