Theremin

The theremin, an enigmatic and ethereal music genre, is defined by its use of the instrument of the same name, which is played without physical contact. Originating in the early 20th century through the invention by Russian physicist Léon Theremin, it produces haunting, otherworldly tones by manipulating electromagnetic fields with hand movements. Revered for its eerie, sci-fi soundscapes, the theremin found a niche in film scores and avant-garde music, captivating listeners with its ghostly melodies and unique, touchless performance style.
