This is the Ondes Martenot. It was invented in 1928 by Maurice Martenot. It plays similar to a theremin, however it is controlled by the position of a ring on a string (called the theremin) rather than the hands closeness to the theremin. The attack is regulated by a left hand key. The timbre can be changed through a pad with swithces on it called the expression pad. This instrument is kept relative today due to it's employment in radiohead songs such as How To Disappear Completely.
