麻豆约拍

Elizabeth Alker offers a range of tracks with Moogs and analogue synths at their heart as synth legend Will Gregory takes a seat in the Unclassified Listening chair to describe a piece of music that transports him elsewhere.

Will Gregory began playing music at school because 鈥渋t was the only thing I was good at鈥�, starting out on the oboe and then switching to the saxophone, which he played as a member of Tears for Fears in the 1980s. Since then, he鈥檚 performed with and composed for an extraordinary range of groups and ensembles, notably on synth as one half of Goldfrapp and as founder member of the Will Gregory Moog ensemble. For nearly two decades, that outfit has used a range of Moogs alongside Roland and Korg synths to perform specially composed music, transcriptions of classical works, and their own versions of music from popular culture and film scores.
