After listening to this disque repeatedly, I would now dare put forth the notion that Lydia Kavina may have proven to the world that she is the greatest thereminist of all - even better than the legendary Clara Rockmore.

Kavina's real strength is in her ability to successfully mesh the unique sound of the thereminvox with other orchestral instruments.
