Take the best RPG of all time. Combine with the only instrument with invisible strings. And you have pure elf-worthy magic!

This incredible viral video shows Randy George, a concert thereminist from Los Angeles, playing the legendary theme from the video game Zelda. It looks like he's conducting a concealed orchestra or playing an invisible harp.

But how? Answer: this instrument works off of radio frequencies that are manipulated by the musician's hand movements.

If you're serious about learning the theremin Thomas Grillo is your guy. His series on HowTo play the theremin is the most comprehensive instruction on the instrument we've seen yet.

Wonder How To did not elaborated the materials for theremin and was not explaned well. It goes directly to the application wherein it is not clear wether the sound is coming from the mouth or actually from the theremin.
