So I've been having a blast fooling around with this awesome instrument. I brought it into work and everyone was mezmerized. One guy is a proficient musician and had messed with Theremins before and even asked if I'd join him in some recordings once my level increases a bit. That's just cool.
Anyway, I haven't played an instrument regularly since I was a kid (I'm 30 now) so this is a little daunting, but I'm pretty confident in my ability to hear proper pitch.
If anyone has some good solid advice on finger technique, I'd love to hear it. I seem to be moving my arm way too much and I'm relying enough on finger movements, it seems. I watch videos of Clara Rockmore and am just in awe of the movements of her hand...she's got that sort of knuckle-claw thing going on there that seems so amazingly accurate.
