FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Remembering Robert Moog...
creator of musical instruments that changed the world.
An exhibit of rare Moog photographs, memorabilia, and historic instruments from the MoogArchives.com collection. First Friday Gallery Night, January 6, 2006, at Christ Church, 10 Henry Street, Binghamton.
As a teenager in 1954, Robert Moog built a few electronic musical instruments at his Long Island home. The instruments caught on and soon Moog's hobby turned into a small business that eventually paid his way through graduate school at Cornell University. By 1964 Moog had set up shop in Trumansburg and it was that year that he created the Moog Synthesizer. The rest is history.
On August 21, 2005, after a half-century of designing and producing innovative musical instruments, Robert Moog passed away.
The exhibit, by former Moog employee and creator of MoogArchives.com,
Roger Luther, will be on display January 6 at the historic Christ Church, 10
Henry Street, Binghamton (across from the Lost Dog Cafe).
