In the story, this melody is played by Captain Jean Luc Picard on a \"Ressikan\" flute (named after the fictitious village of Ressik).\r\n\r\nIn STAR TREK fan surveys, this episode has been consistently voted one of the two most popular ever made. The music was written by Jay Chattaway and has a decidedly Scottish flavor to it.\r\n\r\nSince the story concerns a civilization that existed on a planet orbiting a star that went supernova a thousand years ago, I thought it would be fun to use a Hubble deep space photo of what is left of a star that exploded a billion years ago. That is the background for the video. \r\n\r\nThe instrument I am playing is the Moog Ethervox theremin. It has a range of nearly 10 octaves (comparable to the greatest cathedral organs). I have tried to adjust the waveform to give the timbre of the instrument's voice a more whistle or flute-like sound.", "musiccaps_names": "[\"Music\", \"Musical instrument\", \"Theremin\"]", "musiccaps_aspects": "[\"theremin\", \"harp\", \"soothing\", \"atmospheric\", \"gentle\", \"tranquil\", \"ethereal\", \"heavenly\", \"high pitched whistle tone\"]", "musiccaps_author": "3", "youtube_id": "7XQN9XDnRm4", "musiccaps_rowid": 855} {"video": "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fFYMsrMGQtU&start=30&end=40", "youtube_link": "{\"label\":\"MINI ELECTRONIC THEREMIN MUSICAL INSTRUMENT Unboxing & Build - made by Gakken of Japan\",\"href\":\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fFYMsrMGQtU&start=30&end=40\"}", "musiccaps_caption": "The clip features calm instrumentation, led by a theremin.

Coming as a magazine with ready-to-assemble parts, you can create a true working miniature electronic instrument.\n\nThe Theremin is widely used in science fiction for its eerie electronic sound, but its also considered a true orchestral instrument.\n\nSo join us with The Curator as he showcases and assembles this miniature marvel from Japan - and who knows? He may even give us a tune (of sorts)\n\nColin will also no doubt be trekking on through we imagine.\n\nSHARE, LIKE & SUBSCRIBE to keep the videos coming out of The Museum!\n\nCheck out our blog at \n\nhttp://www.workingminiatures.com \n\nfor more info, or you can follow us on: \n\nFacebook http://www.facebook.com/WorkingMiniatures \n\nTwitter http://www.twitter.com/MoWM_Curator\n\nGoogle+ - https://plus.google.com/+Workingminiatures", "musiccaps_names": "[\"Music\", \"Theremin\"]", "musiccaps_aspects": "[\"instrumental piece\", \"theremin\", \"mellow instrumental\", \"chill instrumental\", \"soothing instrumental\", \"simple hip hop style drum beat\", \"fuzzy high pitched instrument\", \"hollow echoing piano sounds\"]", "musiccaps_author": "3", "youtube_id": "fFYMsrMGQtU", "musiccaps_rowid": 3937} {"video": "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sL01xTmV_Fc&start=30&end=40", "youtube_link": "{\"label\":\"Theremin Player on the Subway\",\"href\":\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sL01xTmV_Fc&start=30&end=40\"}", "musiccaps_caption": "This is an emotional ballad played on the theremin.
