The theremin's relationship with the musical saw:
From Saw Lady (@SawLady on the bird):
"When Leon Theremin invented his instrument, the saw was a popular musical instrument and he aimed to imitate electronically the sound of the saw. He did a great job! I did a very short duet with a thereminist (video: 2014)

On the other hand, who needs a theremin when they have a musical saw?! ๐

"Last night, I realized I had completely forgotten that it was Leon Thereminโs birthday ๐คฆโโ๏ธ But then I thought: what better way to pay tribute than with a quick โHappy Birthdayโ rendition on the instrument he gave us? So here it isโhappy (belated) birthday, Leon! ๐"
