I'm pickin' up good vibrations. She's givin' me excitations. Good, good, good, good vibrations. : )
But seriously, that was a beautiful performance.
Her control of dynamics and attack is just amazing. The matryomin orchestra is indeed deeply weird, and their parallel thirds aren't exactly parallel, but Rockmore is dazzling. Thanks for posting this.
There's a documentary about Rockmore and Leon Theremin that I just love. Her musicianship is simply uncanny.
