Moondog is an album by the American composer Moondog, released by Columbia Masterworks Records on October 1, 1969. The album was made on the initiative of the producer James William Guercio and recorded at Columbia's main studio with Moondog conducting 50 musicians. It consists of compositions written by Moondog in the 1950s and 1960s as he moved from jazz conventions into becoming a classical composer, resulting in a combination of classical influences and elements of what critics have described as minimalist music and third stream. The album includes short symphonic-styled works, canons, chaconnes and a couple of jazz-inspired tracks, one in memory of Charlie Parker.

  • Moondog is an album by the American composer Moondog, released by Columbia Masterworks Records on October 1, 1969. The album was made on the initiative of the producer James William Guercio and recorded at Columbia's main studio with Moondog conducting 50 musicians. It consists of compositions written by Moondog in the 1950s and 1960s as he moved from jazz conventions into becoming a classical composer, resulting in a combination of classical influences and elements of what critics have described as minimalist music and third stream. The album includes short symphonic-styled works, canons, chaconnes and a couple of jazz-inspired tracks, one in memory of Charlie Parker. Moondog received considerable media exposure and positive reviews. It peaked as number six on the Billboard chart for classical music. Moondog was regarded as an eccentric, known for standing at a street corner in New York dressed in a homemade Viking costume, and the album contributed significantly to his reputation as a serious composer.

  • Moondog — пятый студийный альбом американского музыканта и композитора Moondog. Moondog не выпускал новую музыку в течение двенадцати лет, со времён выхода в 1957 году альбома . Наконец в 1969 году продюсер Джеймс Уильям Гверчио пригласил его записать альбом для Columbia Records. В результате в альбом вошла разная музыка, над которой Moondog работал с 1950-х годов. Это включало два «минисима» (термин Moondog для коротких симфонических произведений, исполняемых небольшими оркестрами); два канона; чакона памяти Чарли Паркера; балетная музыка, изначально написанная для Марты Грэм («Witch of Endor»); и три симфонических (или «symphonique») произведения, одно из которых было посвящено Бенни Гудману и содержало элементы свинга. Одна версия композиции «Theme» была записана для Epic Records в 1952 году. Альбом дважды переиздавался как компакт-диск на двойном CD, включавшем Moondog и Moondog 2: один раз на CBS в 1989 году и один раз на Beat Goes On Records в 2001 году. Альбом также был переиздан на виниловой пластинке ко Дню музыкального магазина 2017 года. (ru)
