Robert Moog was an American inventor who developed the moog synthesizer. It was one of the first
synthesizer to gain widespread use as a musical instrument. Moog’s synthesizers were an important part of
musical innovation in rock and jazz music in the 1960s and 1970s. Robert Arthur Moog was born in Queens,
a borough of New York City 75 years ago. He became fascinated with electronics as a teenager, particularly
an early electronic music instrument called the theremin. Moog studied physics and electrical engineering
at Queens College and Columbia University, both in New York City and later received a Ph.D. in engineering
physics from Cornel University in Ithaca, New York. In 1954, while still an undergraduate student, Moog formed
his own company to sell theremin and theremin kits.
Soon after, Moog began working on a keyboard instrument that could replicate the sound of any
musical instrument electronically. Working with American composer Herbert Deutsch, Moog introduced the
prototype Moog Synthesizer at a convention in 1964. The device represented a significant advance over previous
electronic synthesizers because of its use of new semiconductor technology, which made it smaller and
considerably cheaper than earlier machines. The Moog, as it was known, was soon in demand by musician
all over the world.
In 1964, Moog began a collaboration with American composer and organist Walter Carlos (now Wendy Carlos),
who released the bestselling electronic music album Switched-On Bach in 1968. Rock groups such as the Beatles
and Yes and jazz musician such as Harbie Hancock and Chick Corea began incorporating Moog Synthesizer into
their recordings, a trend that increased when the company introduced the compact and portable Minimoog in
1970. A Moog Synthesizer was also prominently featured on the soundtrack to the movie A clockwork Orange in
1971.
