This little half-hour just shoots by if you're at all curious about this instrument. The piece really makes you want to try playing one until at the end an interviewee talks about how difficult it is to master! Darn! Any station with classical music listeners should offer this. Impeccably produced.

If you've never heard a Theremin played before, or if you have and want to hear it played exceptionally well, listen to this piece. Good pacing, lots of beautiful music and an absorbing, brisk account of the inventor and history behind this unusual instrument. Playful, fun, and informative.
