March 13: Without Touch is starting today!
Proof Friday the 13th is in fact a lucky day, just wish we all could be there with the lucky thereminists in Lippstadt. Enjoy friends! and please report back what happens this year.
The Without Touch 3.0 Theremin Festival 2009 in Lippstadt, Germany has been announced for March 13 - 15. Guest Artists include: Lydia Kavina, Barbara Buchholz, Carolina Eyck and Randy George. In addition to performances, lectures, and general theremin camaraderie, there will be lessons for beginners and advanced players. It was a big hit last year, cannot wait hear about this one!

So whos going from this end of the globe, Jen, Jon? Some day... me too I hope!
I made some publicity on the french speaking theremin forum etheremin.com and some people from France and Switzerland will also partake because they'll have a French-German translator (me).
...but, as a teaser: there are some videos about Without Touch 2.0 online:

so I made this graphic for the news post - guess they like it - just hope it helps!
I kept all the details in the text so search spiders can find it.
Keep spreading the word you guys, sounds like it may be even bigger this year!
...hmmm...i am away from 04:00 o'clock tomorrow morning until sunday - but i can call them on monday and have them confirm...let me know if i should do it...i guess that either Thierry or Fabio would also be glad to help...
I worried also last September because I had paid and got no message. Finally I phoned and was told that since this music school was on the financial side part of the administration of the city of Lippstadt, several public officials had to verify the incoming payments before the music school got the message.
But if you'd feel better I may contact Wolfgang in order to ask him if your registration is ok. In case that your real name is different from your name on myspace please drop me a message there.
Update: I managed to talk to one of his colleagues who told me that W. would be back after 4PM (GMT+1).
So I'll call once more later...
I just spoke with Wolfgang. He received all of Margarets emails and answered immediately as he said. So all is fine and we'll be all meeting in Lippstadt.
thanks a lot Thierry for your help. You are right about the topic of payment. The music school in LIppstadt is a part of city council with this special administration. So this time we decided, in case of problems with payment, that it is possible to pay directly cash in Lippstadt. If there is anything not understandable on our theremin page or the registration, please allways feel free to ask per email. Thanks again! Wolfgang Streblow

Theremin_ohio - Margaret - your head must have swollen to the size of a small planet with all that praise.
(tags - URL etc. work better in lower case. You can edit your posts. See where it says "edit"? - top left of your posts, just next to time and date.)
Thierry - did you remember to tap one of the T-Voxes?
I have been too timid to ask someone if he or she would let me touch his/her tvox.
It seems that it happened to me the same thing with the tvox as with all the young and beautiful ladys around. I stared with big eyes but could not open my mouth...
I hope everybody got home safely. As an absolute beginner I just want to tell you how very much I enjoyed meeting and talking to and learning from so many skilled and gifted people. I know it's still a long way for me, but I hope that one day I'll get at least a simple melody straight.
Thanks again, especially to Wolfgang and Thomas for the excellent organisation.
Hoping to see you all next year,
Randulph (in the real world known as "Ralph")
