Ms. Rockmore's Instrument: Built by Leon Theremin

Clara Rockmore's contribution to the electronic music medium is absolutely unique. Hundreds of different musical instruments have been designed and built in the sixty years or so since the fledgling technology of electronics was first harnessed to serve the art of music. Only a few electronic instruments have gained public recognition. For every successful electronic musical instrument, there has been at least one gifted musician who had the foresight to see the instrument's musical potential, the discipline to develop the necessary playing technique, and the musicality to use the instrument to produce beautiful music. The theremin is probably the most original, novel, - and difficult to play - of all electronic musical instruments. Ms. Rockmore has dedicated a major part of her professional career to developing theremin technique and performing widely acclaimed concerts of instrumental music to sophisticated, discriminating audiences. She has shown the theremin to be a valuable musical resource, capable of producing beautiful music and worthy of the dedication of talented performers. No other artist has ever come close to Ms. Rockmore's level of achievement; no other thereminist has ever produced music of such beauty and aural appeal.
Robert A. Moog
I consider Clara Rockmore the foremost, unique and extraordinary Theremin concert artist.
She is the only one in the world who was able to achieve the intricate mastery of the instrument combining it with rare musicianship and most sensitive interpretive qualities of the highest caliber.
