The Hoffert collection consists of approximately 25 pieces of electronic equipment for musical composition, performance and recording. These range from iconic keyboard instruments of the 1970s, to a variety of digital devices from the 1980s, to computer software from the early 1990s. These were used either for stage performances, especially during his years in the jazz rock band Lighthouse, or for work in his home studio. Paul Hoffert conducted Stravinsky's 'A Soldiier's Tale' on a 1978 recording. See 2005.0137.si1.aa.tif for the award winning record cover.
