Moog Theremin T-Shirts
Thereminist Thorwald Jørgensen has been putting together a bibliography of theremin music in the Theremin Library part of his site. It's a great quick reference of compositions that include the theremin with a large and entertaining section for movie soundtracks.


He is frequently adding interesting finds of theremin history like this photo of Clara Rockmore with Paul Robeson and her sister Nadia Reisenberg.


You can check for the latest additions on Thorwald's home page .

amazing. Great idea.

But what about the theremin use in the pop/rock and electro scenes ?

Hi Jimmy,

Since Thorwald's main interest & expertise is classical music, there is no section on (electro)-pop music. That's the only reason why :o)

Besides...how long would that list be?

TW already keeps a list of groups and performers that use the theremin, although it's unclear how up-to-date it is.

Nice work Thorwald and galenus!

Agreed! Good work guys.

It is also great to see TW members and friends listed: Elizabeth Brown, Lydia Kavina, Dalit Warshaw, and Carolina Eyck are ones I've seen in there so far!
