Editing Tangerine Dream (section)

==Personnel==

In the late 1960s and early 1970s, Tangerine Dream existed as several short-lived incarnations, all of which included Froese, who teamed up with several musicians from West Berlin's underground music scene, including [[Steve Jolliffe]], [[Sven-Åke Johansson]], [[Klaus Schulze]], and [[Conrad Schnitzler]].<ref name="Larkin">{{cite book|title=[[Encyclopedia of Popular Music|The Virgin Encyclopedia of Popular Music]]|editor=[[Colin Larkin (writer)|Colin Larkin]]|publisher=[[Virgin Books]]|date=1997|edition=Concise|isbn=1-85227-745-9|page=1162}}</ref>

Froese's most notable association was his partnership with [[Christopher Franke]].<ref name="Larkin"/> Franke joined Tangerine Dream in 1970 after serving time in the group [[Agitation Free]], originally to replace Schulze as the drummer. Franke is credited with starting to use electronic sequencers, which were introduced on ''[[Phaedra (album)|Phaedra]]'', a development that had not only a large impact on the group's music but on many electronic musicians to this day. Franke stayed with the group for 17 years, leaving in 1988 because of exhausting touring schedules, as well as creative differences with Froese.<ref name="Larkin"/>

Other long-term members of the group include [[Peter Baumann]] (1971–1977), who later went on to found the [[New-age music|new-age]] label [[Private Music]], to which the band was signed from 1988 to 1991; [[Johannes Schmoelling]] (1979–1985); [[Paul Haslinger]] (1986–1990); Froese's son [[Jerome Froese]] (1990–2006); [[Linda Spa]] (1990–1996, 2005–2014), a saxophonist & flute player who appeared on numerous albums and concerts, contributing one track on ''Goblins' Club''; and most recently [[Thorsten Quaeschning]] of Picture Palace Music (2005–present).

A number of other members were also part of Tangerine Dream for shorter periods of time. Unlike session musicians, these players also contributed to compositions of the band during their tenures. Some of the more notable members are Steve Schroyder (organist, 1971–1972), [[Michael Hoenig]] (who replaced Baumann for a 1975 Australian tour and a London concert, included on ''Bootleg Box Set Vol. 1''), [[Steve Jolliffe]] (wind instruments, keyboards and vocals on ''Cyclone'' and the following tour; he was also part of a short-lived 1969 line-up), Klaus Krüger (drummer on ''Cyclone'' and ''Force Majeure'') and [[Ralf Wadephul]] (in collaboration with Edgar Froese recorded album ''Blue Dawn'', but it was released only in 2006; also credited for one track on ''Optical Race'' (1988) and toured with the band in support of this album).

Throughout the 1990s and into the 2000s, Tangerine Dream was often joined on stage by Zlatko Perica or Gerald Gradwohl on guitars, and Emil Hachfeld on electronic drums. Jerome Froese left in 2006 after a concert at the Tempodrom in Berlin. Until late 2014, Tangerine Dream comprised Edgar Froese, as well as Thorsten Quaeschning, who first collaborated in the composition of ''Jeanne d'Arc'' (2005). For concerts and recordings, they were usually joined by [[Linda Spa]] on saxophone and flute, Iris Camaa on drums and percussion, and Bernhard Beibl on guitar. In 2011, electric violinist [[Hoshiko Yamane]] was added to the lineup and is featured on some of the most recent albums.<ref name=T>{{cite web |work=[[Telepolis]] |language=de |url=https://www.heise.de/tp/features/Musik-aus-geordneten-Geraeuschen-3813791.html?seite=2 |title=Musik aus geordneten Geräuschen}}</ref>

In late 2014, Bernhard Beibl announced on his [[Facebook]] page that he would stop collaborating with Tangerine Dream. Shortly thereafter, it was announced that Tangerine Dream would no longer be touring with Linda Spa or Iris Camaa, but that [[Ulrich Schnauss]] had been brought into the fold. Edgar Froese's death in January 2015, however, left this a short-lived line-up.<ref>{{cite news |title=Tangerine Dream founder Edgar Froese dies |newspaper=The Guardian |date=23 January 2015 |url=https://www.theguardian.com/music/2015/jan/23/tangerine-dream-founder-edgar-froese-dies}}</ref>
