Bob Moog, 1934-2005
As many of you know, Bob Moog was diagnosed with a brain tumor earlier this year. We are greatly saddened to report that an announcement of Bob's passing has been posted to MoogMusic.com.
ThereminWorld extends our deepest sympathies to Dr. Moog's family, friends, and co-workers for their great loss.
I have posted some reflections on my experiences with Bob. I will play a tune for him today, and I will recall his kindness and passion every time I look at a theremin. I will miss him dearly.
