Scriabin: Etude op.2 n°1 for theremin, cello and piano

[@gozzaldi1486]

He just wanted us to come to this video to show off his new mustache lol

[@emikadumas4376]

And he has friends now! Lol

[@dedicatedsurvivor9280]

Facts 😂

[@sonnydayz2118]

I got my clippers out and my D has the same mustache!

[@samuelisaac2984]

this is such a glo up from Clair de lune. The mustache and everything, man

[@DavidNorthMusic]

Legs grew a couple of feet as well. Pun originally not intended.

[@MrEysox]

He became a man.

[@thecowgirlmermaid]

Came for the theremin, stayed for the stache

[@emikadumas4376]

And so gay. I love it. His queerness just glows.

[@inkyguy]

@@emikadumas4376 , you’re obvious young and very inexperienced in much of the world.

I bet he hasn't touched his theremin in years

Underrated comment

[@wildoesthings]

I saw this comment and thought it was so mean and I was gonna come be like "hey why be so mean" and then. and then I realized.

[@itsblack2321]

Don't you need to touch the loop on the left to fully silence it?

[@DragonBonder]

lol yeah his theremin floats itself into this room

[@andrewchoi1283]

Can we just take a moment to appreciate the cellist and pianist too? They're absolutely splendid.

[@jhonymelavo635]

The theremin by itself sounds pretty stupid

[@bearmouse1000]

Jhony Melavo yes, and either way the version of this etude on solo piano sounds far better than this rendition. Imo, even in the case of the majority of trained players, the theremin is an inorganic sounding instrument, especially at higher pitches.

[@CrispyChicken38]

@@bearmouse1000 I disagree with the idea that the theramin having an inorganic sound is a bad thing. Electric sounding music is quite beautiful in the right hands.

[@bearmouse1000]

Crispy Chicken i agree, but I’ve heard so many theramin players and only one has truly impressed me with their art. In higher pitches, players are too often not delicate enough with their motions making the theremin sound more like a slide whistle

[@iliyajavadian]

He's french

[@void3793]

holy shit hes taller than expected

[@TomCL-vb6xc]

Had he lived to hear the theremin, I imagine Scriabin would have loved the instrument given how other-wordly his music was. What could be better than *the* mystic composer writing for the most supernatural of instruments?

[@MariaCarabin]

So true!!!

[@scriabinismydog2439]

In fact Nikolai Obukhov (one of the many disciples of Scriabin's mystical music) came to create an instrument similar to the theremin, with the only difference that his was shaped like a cross.

[@aabe1189]

@@scriabinismydog2439 The instrument's called croix sonore, by the way.

[@BarelyNoticeable]

Whoa. When it gets to the high notes it kinda sounds like a woman’s operetta(?) and when it goes lower than that it sounds like some mix between an instrument and someone humming... Fascinating. Thank you for the great video by the way!!!

[@sophiatalksmusic3588]

Maybe you mean "soprano"? An operetta is a short opera.

[@josh67fps]

you mean falsetto?

[@edwinvlasics4047]

@@sophiatalksmusic3588 operetta is actually an opera with words, not a short opera

[@josh67fps]

Giga Egad oh i didnt know that, thanks

[@adihaddad2060]

you can clearly hear the improvement he had with this instrument, especially when its so hard to hit the right notes, and now he is hitting them spot on and still with feel

[@thealexanderbond]

I never imagined a theremin could be played this well or make this beautiful sound.

[@kalymya2265]

You're the reason I started theremin ! I always wait for you to upload, this is beautiful and I can't wait for more !!!

[@noors529]

Pisses me off how underrated you are. But I’m glad you’re following your passion and this is really beautiful. Loved the Clair de lune cover; the eerie sound just changes the whole mood.

[@gwamhurt]

Oof. Its lovely to see you post again. Youre the most precise theremin player I know of and youre amazing to hear. Please keep making content!

[@philoluluegonyme4318]

Sublime hommage, bravo à tous les musiciens ! Et cet instrument est d'un éthéré... Divin ! ( Et ta moustache est fort sympathique !)

[@eflat7_]

Absolutely gorgeous and heart-wrenching! Thank you. I could hardly imagine a better rendition of this etude. 💛 Will certainly be coming back to this performance every day.

[@TheDiethel]

Magnifique Gregoire ! La moustache est super également

[@seb9612]

Just pure chills, even a year later. Perfect as it should be.

[@quentinduverdier2941]

Magnifique! Et le thérémin semble vraiment sur le même plan que les autres, ce qui n'est jamais évident... Bravooo!

[@katlauren9161]

The best Theremin performance I have ever seen. Great trio!

Scriabin and theremin, what a perfect combination...!! Très bien Gregoire... 👏👏👏

[@sergeyblinov3457]

Beautiful use of each instrument's textures!

[@VenerabIe]

Absolutely enchanting, as always. Your vibrato and the way you couple it with your dynamics is so elegant, and adds such nuance to your playing. Fantastic job, Grégoire! Looking forward to your next piece!

All three of you are Excellent... Soooo beautiful !!!!

[@nataliamachado9164]

As a fan, I have one humble request. Please play "Panis Angelicus" on the theremin. I feel the instrument is especially suitable, and it would be a dream come true to hear you play.

[@tcgmd]

Ooh, i second that!!!

[@christinabrownspieler6443]

Pleas this would be the most heavenly sound

[@trevjr]

I have been playing this etude for years, I really loved this performance. Incredible sound to this etude. Great job by all involved!!

Always the most musical and emotionally sensitive. You make us believe the theremin is the most expressive and flexible instrument in existence!

[@chloevallot8619]

Alors là je suis bluffée, je vous ai découvert grâce à la vôtre reprise du Clair de Lune; passionnée de musique, je ne connaissais pourtant pas du tout cet instrument. Merci pour cette merveilleuse découverte, qui plus est avec un jeu très juste et précis, ce qui ne doit pas être facile sur un tel instrument. 1000 fois bravo!

I almost thought the mustache was a tribute to Scriabin’s own until your saw the other video. 😂 Anyway, this is exceptional. It’s amazing to see what this instrument is capable of and what a great interpretation and performance of one of my absolute favorite Scriabin pieces.

And a beautiful tribute it is, cher Grégoire! J'adore la tonalité que tu donnes à ton instrument, à la fois douce et présente.
