Something to Think About

The Thereminist
In this orchestra, there is a woman who is playing an instrument called the Theremin. It is a quantum instrument played solely by the energy from one's hands. The instrument creates a magnetic field which is played without being touched and emits a sound which resembles the human voice.
The thereminist stands in front of the instrument and moves his or her hands in the proximity of two metal antennas. The distance from one antenna determines frequency (pitch), and the distance from the other controls amplitude (volume). ... The theremin uses the heterodyne principle to generate an audio signal. This instrument is notoriously difficult to master.

 Concert in Sagrada Familia (Gaudi's Cathedral) - Barcelona

I hope you find this interesting as to how they created the background music for Clint Eastwood's - "The Good, The Bad and The Ugly" film.  This was done 54 years ago and there was a female orchestra conductor - which was highly unusual at that time.  54 years ago, tough guy Clint Eastwood was a mere 36, he starred in the spaghetti western classic, "The Good, The Bad and The Ugly!"Composer Ennio Morricone passed away July 6, 2020 at the age of 92.  Eli Wallach passed away in 2014 at age 98 while Lee Van Cleef died in 1989 at 64. For those who might enjoy seeing how that theme was performed, this is your lucky day
