HOW THE THEREMIN CHANGED THE WORLD | Clara Venice | TEDxVaughan

Описание: Even though it is one of the oldest electronic instruments, the theremin is
obscure - but it has had a massive impact on the world. In this combination
of talk and performance, pop singer and thereminist Clara Venice
demonstrates why the theremin is a milestone invention, and explains this
magical instrument's tremendous influence on 20th century pop culture.

Pop singer, songwriter, multi-instrumentalist and romantic — Clara Venice is Canada’s Theremin Prodigy. Clara is one of the only people in the world who plays the Theremin as a proper instrument, which adds an emotional and haunting diversity to her music.

Clara composes ethereal futurepop, with whimsical narratives about spacey love connections. Her live performances include a must-see set design with a virtual band of hologlamorous personas, interactive Theremin-controlled lighting, planetary projections, and awe-inspiring landscapes that morph throughout the show.
Clara has performed around the world, opening for renowned acts such as the Violent Femmes and Carole Pope. She joined the Barenaked Ladies on their 2014 Cross-Canada tour, and has been showcased at The One Man Band Festival, Just for Cats Festival, Kazoo Fest, Word on the Street, NXNE, Spur Festival, IngenuityFest, and Beakerhead.
