My friend Renee Moog, daughter of Dr. Robert Moog, just emailed me
about the opening of the Bob Moog Memorial Foundation.
You can read about it at:
http://www.moogfoundation.org/
Renee's sister Michelle Moog-Kousa writes:
"We have decided to establish the Bob Moog Memorial Fund for
Electronic Music, with a few carefully chosen objectives, each tied
to his life and work. Our objectives are: three endowed scholarships,
a memorial museum, event sponsorships and an outreach program for
disadvantaged children."
At the web site, the foundation will be providing podcasts and
soliciting submissions from musicians who play Moog instruments along
with spoken-word remembrances from those who knew and worked with Dr.
Moog.
Bob Moog passed away just about a year ago, in Asheville, North
Carolina.
Sincerely,
Wheat Williams
Atlanta
