Herbert a. deutsch (2 Ergebnisse)

Zustand: Very good minus. First printing. Inscribed first edition of this groundbreaking textbook on electronic music from the pioneering composer, musician, and co-creator of the Moog synthesizer. Along with Bob Moog (who provided the technical know-how), Herbert A. Deutsch (who provided the practical musical know-how) in 1964 invented the legendary Moog synthesizer, which helped change the direction of popular music in the second half of the 20th century. An influence on everyone from The Beatles (who featured the instrument on ABBEY ROAD) to Pink Floyd, the Moog is also almost single-handedly responsible for much of the sound of disco, new wave, club, house, and other dance musics. SYNTHESIS is the first of a trilogy of textbooks Deutsch penned dealing with electronic music - among the earliest books of their kind. Includes a 7-inch 33-1/3 vinyl record of Deutsch engaged in a number of aural experiments and manipulations. Given its ephemeral nature, the book is scarce on its own, and is rare signed. An significant entry in the history of electronic music, from one of its most important figures. 10'' x 7.5''. Original color pictorial wrappers. With paper sleeve containing 7-inch 33-1/3 vinyl record taped (likely as issued) to inside rear cover. xii, 140 pages. Inscribed by Deutsch on the title page: "To Ginny Page / with warmest regards and / appreciation for your help and / friendship - / Love, / Herb." Chipping and creasing to spine with some separation to the rear cover at the fold. Some foxing and offsetting to endpapers. Book worn, but sound. Signed.…
