The first public concert of electronic music in the United States took place at the Museum of Modern Art in New York City in October 1952. The music, by Otto Luening and Vladimir Ussachesky, had been composed by editing and processing sounds that had been previously recorded on tape. Luening's Low Speed, for example, took the sounds of a flute below the flute range and processed them to sound like a "strange new instrument". The music was then played back on tape recorders during the concert.
