Re: [Aetherphon] Not a theremin, but

2007-11-21 by David V

I'm glad you had a chance to meet him.  I've conversed with him once or 
twice by e-mail and he seems pretty nice.  He's actually on both of my 
programs now, playing ondes Martenot on Spellbound, a brief program of 
music for theremin, and playing glass armonica on the upcoming program 
Spellbound: Musique de Verre.  Talented guy with a thing for rare 
instruments.
