The Well‐Tempered Synthesizer

Album by Wendy Carlos

The Well-Tempered Synthesizer is the debut studio album by American composer Wendy Carlos, released in 1968. The album presents Moog synthesiser interpretations of classical repertoire with clear, bell-like tones, precise tuning and layered textures, and it helped bring modular synthesis to a broader audience while influencing Carlos's subsequent work in electronic and film music.
