The Flight of the Bumblebee performed on the theremin

This is what happens if you leave a bumblebee and a theremin in the same room… ⚡️🐝
They play Rimsky-Korsakov’s The Flight of the Bumblebee! 😉

I feel like that's the correct instrument for this piece.

It’s as if she holds the bumblebee between her thumbs, and in the end sets it free. Such an incredible performance!

[jojoledo]

Imagine going back in time and playing this for a crowd of people. You'd get instantly charged with witchcraft. What a time to be alive.

I clicked on this thinking that you'd be like aggressively vibrating you hand for the sixteenth notes, I didn't know a theramin could just have a set beat like that lol.

[snubbyj]

YES! Love the playfulness of the finger-lights. Awesome work yet again.

Honestly playing this piece on Theremin just adds a new level by having the synthesis of visual and sonic mimicry of a bumblebee. Wonderful. Absolutely wonderful. Thank you for making this!

Question: could an actual insect flying near the antenna make the instrument sound?

[gadzooks]

The bumblebee light serves to show how amazingly expressive this instrument is. The gestures and behaviour of the player are just so in tune with the piece. Bravo!

If you can play it slowly you can play it on a theremin

This is definitely the last cover I ever would have expected on this instrument. Not only that, but there was a lot of really cool eye and ear candy going on with it. Between the tremelo pedal, the really inventive light effects, and a keen ear for the tune itself, this was amazing to watch!

[qui-gonjinn]

This instrument is really one of a kind. Truly an exceptional work of art. Still looks like it's from the future even thought it's from the beginning of the 20th century.

Not gonna lie, she look like she's trying to summon something.

This Video, and the theme from the 1951 The Day The Earth Stood Still, are a true testament to the beauty of the Theremin! And the only two songs ever made on one! Great job!!!

[tobyfuller]

I have never seen the instrument itself used so artistically in shaping the music. Well Done!

The theremin is NOT easy to play for many reasons, but she makes it look easy.
