August 9th, 2010 marks the 45th Anniversary of a small summer
conference designed to teach electronic music and expose the new Moog
synthesizer to a new world of music composers and performers. The Bob Moog Foundation Archive is focusing on this
relatively unknown event, to bring a little clearer understanding of
the way things were in the very early days of the Moog
synthesizer. Using documents, photos and tapes from the Archive plus
recollections from a few who were there Moog historian Brian Kehew presents a look at the Electronic Music Workshop of August 1965. Some of the composers who attended the first Moog conference include Robert Ceely, Margaret Fairlie-Kennedy, Franklin Morris, and Art Hunkins.
