Electronic Valve Instrument

 
 
The electronic valve instrument, basically a wind synthesizer, was developed by Neil Styner around 1975. Its main use so far has been in jazz/rock and new age recordings, but Maurice Jarre (best known for his movie soundtracks) composed a concerto for it. It is played by Neil Styner himself with the BBC Concert Orchestra under the composer on a BBC CD.
