Theremin Blog, DOG.

Hi Friends.

So, In January, I started studying the theremin at Mannes College of Music's Extension Division in Manhattan. They've never had a theremin major before (has anyone?), and since my adventures thus far have been quite singular and may be of poignant interest to theremin-ophiles, I have decided to blog about it. I've only written one entry so far, but expect more fantastical tales as the week progresses. (I'm on Spring Break so I finally have time to write.)

Here's the link:

Read away! Comment! Email me!

Thanks,
Jen

Ah yeah, I got in touch a while back and you sent me a link to your music. Cool. I'll try to keep up.

Forgive me for being a little incredulous of the telephone conversation you describe :P

Thanks.

About the phone conversation: I didn't believe it either.

;)

Great! Looking forward to following your adventures. I have subscribed to your RSS feed!

Jen,

Congratulations and best wishes to you.

EXCELLENT Jen!
Happy ground breaking and please keep us posted.
You'll have to let us know about all of your recitals.
Did they hire a theremin teacher yet? Eager to know about that too.

congrats!

Thanks, everyone!

Omhoge - Unfortunately, they aren't going to hire a theremin teacher, per se. I convinced them to let me take lessons from a violin teacher. She's great! She teaches me dynamics, tone, vibrato, etc. . . I do the technique work myself. I might try a voice teacher next year, and then, maybe a cello teacher after that, just for variety. One of the perks of the theremin is that can sound similar to a lot of different instruments.
