~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~HARMONIUM: Leanna plays the unique and rare Harmonium (hand pumped reed organsits on your lap/floor or stand, used in a lot of Hindu/Indian music, orginated in Europe). With the rare sounds of this amazing instrument.Leanna has been experimenting successfully with vocal improvizations and chanting over this captivating instrument.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~THEREMIN: Leanna plays the one of a kind Theremin. The Theremin has been played by the likes of: Aerosmith, Beach Boys, Black Eyes Peas, Cyndi Lauper, David Gray, Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, & Talking Heads.

Besides looking like no other instrument, the theremin is unique in that it is played without being touched. Two antennas protrude from the theremin - one controlling pitch, and the other controlling volume. As a hand approaches the vertical antenna, the pitch gets higher. Approaching the horizontal antenna makes the volume softer. Because there is no physical contact with the instrument, playing the theremin requires precise skill and perfect pitch.
