Etherwave Build-Your-Own Theremin Kit

This Moog theremin kit comes with everything you need to make a theremin. With the unfinished wood cabinet and prebuilt circuit board, you'll build a theremin. Several wiring points require soldering. Power supply is included.

One of the oldest electronic instruments, the theremin is the only one known that you play without touching. Moving your hands in the space around its antennas controls pitch and volume. The Etherwave is an adaptation of inventor Leon Theremin's original design.

Reproduces a 5-octave pitch range and reliable spacing between notes for sophisticated playability. Antennas are nickel-plated 3/8" brass tube and cabinets are furniture-grade hardwood. Can be fitted with an adapter for mounting on a standard microphone stand and is designed for use with a musical instrument amplifier.

The make-it-yourself theremin kit comes with two videotapes: Clara Rockmore: The Greatest Theremin Virtuosa, which includes performances and a conversation with the world-renowned thereminist, filmed in 1976; and Mastering the Theremin which includes six lessons with Lydia Kavina, including exercises designed by Clara Rockmore. Lydia is one of the few professional thereminists in the world and a master teacher on the instrument. This is the main resource you need for learning to play theremin or for improving your technique.
