On this episode of Encore Houston, the Apollo Chamber Players welcome special guest Carolina Eyck and her talents on the theremin, and instrument you might know from old science-fiction movies. The concert features the theremin in a variety of setups, sometimes as a solo voice, sometimes subbing in for a voice or a cello, and sometimes as a unique and distinct member of the ensemble.
