Kennen Sie dieses Musikinstrument? Als Vorläufer des Synthesizers erzeugte das Trautonium für Alfred Hitchcocks Thriller schaurig-skurrile Klänge. Die Erfindung kommt aus Deutschland und sorgt noch heute für Gänsehaut. dlvr.it/T5tYwW

오늘 친구따라 필름뮤지움에서 무성영화+trautonium이라는 백년넘은 일렉트로닉 악기로 소리 연주하는 영화 봤는데 짱 재미있었다. 특히 이 악기를 연주하는 사람이 이제 거의 없어서 오늘 연주자인 peter pichler가 마지막이라던데 어쩌면 내 인생에서 이 악기의 마지막 연주일지도..

Great person, great knowledge. It was an honor to meet him some weeks ago at my studio in Munich. #trautonium #myleswjackson
No place like Berlin for science historian Myles W. Jackson’s talk tonight on the eerie sounds of the #trautonium and the early years of electronic music. A story about “the construction of radio, fidelity, electroacoustics and a musical aesthetic.” Full video on our site soon!

Apparently some of the sound design for The Birds was done using a trautonium which was the worlds first synthesizer invented in the 1930s. Found this video of a world renowned touring trautonium player recreating the SFX

My illustration for what would be Oskar Sala's 112th birthday. His Trautonium (the first electronic synthesizer) sound effects for Hitchcock's The Birds terrified me as a kid!
