Wendy Carlos: A Discography

Wendy Carlos (born "Walter" in 1939) was a child prodigy. At just ten years old, she composed a trio for clarinet, accordion and piano. By 14, she had built a small computer of her own. A model student at Brown University--and later at the Columbia-Princeton Electronic Music Center--in 1966, she had the good fortune to work with Robert Moog on the construction of the first commercial synthesizer.
