206-328-6499.
Here is what they wrote about me/the event:
Bryan Lowe
Announcer at KING FM since 1979, and general experimenter in music. He enjoys learning to play odd instruments, including theremin, Ondes Martenot, musical saw, surbahar, dulcimer, bagpipe, and more.
Bryan has played the theremin with the Federal Way Symphony in a performance of the Spellbound Concerto by Miklos Rozsa.
Join us in a theremin experience, where Bryan demonstrates the theremin, and teaches participants how to play the theremin parts from the film The Day the Earth Stood Still.
Join us and play along with the video.
Free with $3 admission.
I must say, I am pretty rusty, but I have been practicing a lot lately. As you know, there is a steep learnig curve on this thing. Right now I am working on Lush Life for a gig in June. I have a long way to go, but while last week it seemed impossible, this week I can see a very faint light at the end of the tunnel.
My Etherwave pro has developed a serious volume control problem. It sounds like a lose connection or a transistor kicking in and out. The volume will take great leaps on and off. I will call the factory soon. I will bring it, and try to use it, but also will have my standard etherwave. I may also bring my French Connection, which is a fake Ondes Martenot. Probably will.
If you are a thereminist, or just interested, pop in for a visit. If you are pretty good, show us how it's done! If you are like me, join us for some fun. I don't have the score to the soundtrack, so mostly we will just explore and experiment. The part to the movie just isn't that hard, so it should be ok.
