I don't think it gets more analog than this.

Has anyone ever interviewed Oskar Sala's nextdoor neighbors to find out what it was like living next door to him? Police records of noise complaints? He obviously had a brilliant mind with an ability to remember what each and every switch, knob, other controls did on the Trautonium. Admittedly, Oskar Sala, was a very innovative sound effects musician and composer. How did he transpose his compositions to musical scores for others to read and perform? What a musical score for motion picture sound tracks like Alfred Hitchcock's "The Birds", must have looked like on paper.

Crazy how he makes it sound so natural and not synthetic. Like a one man orchestra.

@@dianayz4644 El Trautonio sería como un "Proto Sinte". Con el se pueden crear muchos tipos de sonidos y ruidos. Sintéticos o más Orgánicos... O ambos.

I had the honour to meet Mr Sala in the early 90tees, when he presented it near to our university in NRW. I had an intensive talk to him and the possibilities of electronical music, MIDI and that all. It is so impressive what this instrument can do! The sounds were superb and still overcame most electronic synthesizers of that time! First some years later in the mid of the 90tees, VA-Synthesis gave as similar opportunities.

ich hatte Ihn zur Sonnenfinsternis 99 in Kalsruhe gesehen... Alfred Hitchcock hatte zum normalen Drehbuch ein Musikdrebuch geschrieben. Wenn es dich interessiert, Ammer & Console haben dieses vertont und gehen im Vorwort auf Trautonium ein und dann schritt für schritt durch das Drehbuch.. hören Sie hier ammerconsole.bandcamp.com/album/die-v-gel-nach-oskar-sala

Revelation: Subharmonic Generator. By electronic devision it produces four different subtones (= chord) from a single master tone, thus generating an eight-tone chord on both manuals. The subharmonic chord (basically minor scale) can be varied by its mutable frequency ratios, stored into three different presets and selected by foot-pedal during recitation. These one-finger subharmonic chords can sound in every pitch, even as glissandos, without changing their intervals.

Just learned about the trautonium today. What a haunting instrument!

I'm not sure exactly why, but I found this music strangely touching. Thank you for sharing. Google brought me here.

Irgendwo im Zuschauerraum sitze ich auch rum! Vielen Dank fürs Einstellen! Weckt wunderbare Erinnerung an Oskar Sala und seine Musik!❤

He is really one of the ORIGINAL pioneers of electronic music, decades before Moogs and Kraftwerk

My computer music professor showed this video in class today, pretty cool dude. gonna try and recreate this sound someway somehow.

This is just wonderful. I love that this thing exists and I actually get to hear it. I think I want one

Happy heavenly 112th birthday today Oskar Sala!

Very cool. Lovely mixture of progressive synth effects with traditional composition. I think it works.

He plays it in such a cool classical way. So musical.

I'm truly amazed at the range of sounds Oskar Sala was able to coax out of his Mixtur Trautonium.

This guy literally did Electronica and math rock decades before anyone knew what those genres were.

Yeah I'm jealous of anyone that learned anything from him back in those days. Wouldn't shock me that there are probably great composers practiced a similar style early early on from him like house artist, before house/edm/electro/synth sound was a thing . Rad 🤙🏾🤘🏾💯

The man who did the sound for Hitchcock on “The Birds”. No incidental music just a disturbing synth bird echo sound. Unsettling

Such a catchy tune.

What a lovely, whimsical, uncanny machine man

I want to cry this is so cool

WOW! So this is the instrument that gave birth to all the music we hear today. I would not do what I do as a musician had not it been for Pioneers such as Friedrich Trautwein and Oskar Sala. Respect due!

The ebb and flow of that last chord is brilliant.

... met him before his concert. We talked about Paul Hindemith, Edgar Wallace, Alfred Hitchcock, the war, his problems and friends, who helped him constructing the trautonium. - He asked me, if i want to learn this instrument. Who wonders: I denied. - After Gerhard Schröder's KlangArt Festival laudation, who became later on Bundeskanzler of Germany, no more more sponsors for this congress could be found.

wow, that was neat! just learned of the Trautonium this evening, within the last 15 minutes. fascinating instrument and this performance was brilliant. excellent post.

the ending Melody truly blew my mind! such precision and grace!

Great Man and Great Macchine!!!!!

Oh my God.......... Even today, in the times of modulars with A LOT OF diferrent modules, sounds and technologies --- this old video just exploded my brain.... ABSOLUTELY GENIUS! ABSOLUTELY!!! JUST IDEALLY - ALL, composition, playing, thoughts, and ESPECIALLY SOUNDS!.... Now the sound of all modern analog "synths" like Chinese toys for little children..... This is just a GIANT OF REAL ANALOG SOUND!... SO BEAUTIFUL!......... GREAT GENIUS ...

bravo Monsieur Sala , fantastique !

Absolutamente MARAVILLOSO! Caprice Rubato es una obra esquisita. Deliciosa. Increíble, Oskar Sala! Thanks for sharing!

Happy birthday oscar sala.⭐

I've got to get me one of these. Truly the best synthetic sound I've ever heard.

Another hint for those who do not know about this instrument: It has been used to generate the birds' screams in Hitchcocks "the birds". kzread.info/dash/bejne/h6x9sKuweNu4aNY.html The inventors Oskar Sala, Friedrich Trauwein and the Composer Paul Hindemith have to be announced when it comes to the question who really invented electronical music and the point of time was 1930. This was even before Konrad Zuse developed the first computer!

Wizard of Oz: "I have nasty organ" Sala: hold my trautonium.....

Wahnsinn... noch nie gehört! Da braucht's gar kein Mischpult... Nur die Multitasking-Fähigkeit! Tolles 'Instrument'...
