Beethoven's "Ode to Joy" played on 167 Matryomins


The Matryomin is a theremin lodged inside a matryoshka.  More information at Open Culture.

See also Morricone's Ecstasy of Gold played on a theremin (skip to the middle).

    Truly eerie. I don't know who dreamed this up, but I got the shivers listening to it. Thanks.

    I wonder why 167? That just seems like such an odd number.

    That's probably all the people who had one and knew how to play it. After all it's not a normal instrument kids play in a school band.
