Clara Rockmore/Saint Saens - The Swan #73

Clara Rockmore/Saint Saens - The Swan

Clara Rockmore (1911 - 1998) was a theremin, an electronic instrument of virtuoso players. theremin and construct a Russian, Leon Theremin was called by. Patents two antennas attached to the machine in 1928 and oscillators, a horizontal and a vertical antenna to the volume of the horn was used to control the pitch control is used. For this antenna was placed close to or farther away from her pitch and volume determined. I touched the antenna at all. Widest use the theremin in 1950 and 1960 and has been for science fiction movies, rock music and avant garde music, but the instrument has been a resurgence there.

Clara Rockmore was a child prodigy on violin at the age of five studying at the St. Petersburg conservatory. However, due to malnutrition, a serious bone problems, and to continue his study of violin playing to keep improving.
And work with the inventor of the theremin and discovered it to be a specific instrument. The entire technology for the development of an instrument, his fingers to the wind and note-finger use.

Camille Saint-Saëns (1835 - 1921) was a French writer. He is an instrument composed of a group (with a full orchestra version is also available) that is a Carnival for the musically like a magazine picture, pieces of a group of animals. 1886 in Saint Saëns thought it was very foolish and decided as a serious composer, his reputation was hurt some. The vignettes allow only one lifetime, the duck will not be published. The entire collection after his death in 1922 and remains a very popular work was published. Swan song is a melancholy saxophone legend that when a swan that sings the sweetest song dies, it is primarily written for the picture. Clara Rockmore shows that the theremin, an instrument of expression and may be a slight difference, but if I was a mystery how the world out of thin air, like a sweet, ethereal music coaxes. It's magical.
