Waves of Inspiration: The Legacy of Moog Exhibition at the Museum of Making Music

| September 4, 2009

The Museum of Making Music and The Bob Moog Foundation announce Waves of Inspiration: The Legacy of Moog a special exhibition to run from August 29, 2009–April 30, 2010, at the Museum’s facilities in Carlsbad, California. The exhibit is the first of its kind, marking the first public display of the artifacts from The Bob Moog Foundation Archives.

Bob Moog (1934-2005) was a pioneer in the field of electronic music, developing the Moog synthesizer in 1964. His work made synthesis accessible to musicians and provided them with new realms of sonic expression. The instrument revolutionized the face of music and was used by such early synthesists as Wendy Carlos, Keith Emerson, Rick Wakeman, Stevie Wonder, Chick Corea, Herbie Hancock, Jan Hammer, and more.
