Theremin instrument invented by Léon Theremin

by Sur: Leon Theremin

A Soviet scientist named Léon Theremin invented this instrument in the 1920s, and it still holds a unique record: no other musical instrument is played without being touched at all. You shape the notes and tones purely by moving your hands and fingers in the air around it, which looks almost hypnotic. The sound seems to materialize out of nowhere, giving it a vibe that feels straight out of another world or Earth's distant future.
