Thank you for all your love, support and prayers. The world will miss Casey Kasem, an incredible talent and humanitarian; we will miss our Dad. With love, Kerri, Mike and Julie.”

Moog introduces the Theremini

Moog has re-imagined one of the oldest electronic instruments, the Theremin. Being the only instrument that can be played without touch, the Theremini combines features of Moog’s Animoog sound engine with a traditional ‘no- touch’ Theremin.

From MoogMusic.com:

The Moog Theremini is a re-imagination of one of the oldest electronic musical instruments in history, and Bob Moog’s first love – the Theremin. Its design fuses the experience of performing with an instrument you don’t actually touch, with a powerful sound engine derived from Moog’s award winning synthesizer, Animoog. The Theremini guarantees immediate success to any player at any skill level, while providing new ways to experiment with music, education, and gestural control.
