You guys would likely enjoy Moogfest in Asheville, an annual festival dedicated to early electronic music. Asheville was his home. They’ve been having a festival there in his honor for years.

Annually for five days in late April. Here’s the lineup for 2014:

Tomita’s “Snowflakes are Dancing” is the first electronic music remembered. The album was played so often, it eventually needed to be replaced.Beautiful music.

His “Heaven and Hell” album, though a great sound on Sagen’s Cosmos just was not up to the Snowflakes’ standard.

Switched On Bach by Walter Carlos is also one of interest. However Tomita is still owner of the blue ribbon.

One of my faves from the '50's - Raymond Scott.

"...Emerson Lake and Palmer did some great stuff. Their synthesizer version of "Hoe-down" by Aaron Copland is a masterpiece. ..."

ELP did a remake of "Fanfare for the Common Man", I think for the 1976 Olympics. It is a great listen.

Is this the same thing you are referencing?

“Everything you wanted to hear on the Moog - but were afraid to ask for” (or something like that).
Like Switched on Bach, but includes Bolero and a great piece from Carmen.

No. I am referring to Hoedown on their album “Trilogy.”
