Please copy the link to listen to the tracks from this Suite for Theremin ensemble.

The 1st Theremin ensemble to be recorded in over 80 years. & as far as I know the only recording to feature a Theremin Orchestra.

Thank you for your time & attention.

WOW! That's wonderful! .....Is this a real theremin orchestra with multiple theremin players, or is it a single theremininst overdubbing multiple times?

Dear Coalport, Thank you for your interest,

I multi-tracked the music I wrote for this Suite for Theremin.

No choice really, as I couldn't get the Theremin players together that I required, & then the rehearsal time etc.

All the best

Hey caerlleon,

 

Some pretty good stuff there!  I may pick up a CD!

Also, while I may not be quite as much of a Theremin fanatic as the rest of the members here, I too have had difficulty finding ensembles of Theremins.  In searching, I've come across:

Mable (http://www.synthgear.com/2009/music/theremin-ensemble/)

First Theremin Orchestra of the 21st Century (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GjlwEuREAbI   http://www.doritchrysler.com/ThOrchestra.html)

ICEM Theremin Ensemble (http://www.myspace.com/icemthereminensemble/music/playlists/icem-theremin-ensemble-s-playlist-2444969   http://vimeo.com/user1873960)

Seattle Theremin Orchestra (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G7EunQrHfQ4&feature=endscreen&NR=1)

Vacouver Experimental Theremin Orchestra (http://www.facebook.com/pages/Vancouver-Experimental-Theremin-Orchestra/342968222393760)

And one from my hometown (http://thereminensemble.com/)

 

Other than the first couple, the others seem pretty amature.

There needs to be more Theremin collaborration!!
