That just sounds like a really basic, maybe chorused sine wave with its pitch slowly being increased.. that combined with the orchestra is what is creating the effect you hear, I think.

As Andrew said, it's a pretty basic synth sound. Maybe a couple of oscillators with sawtooths through a little lowpass filtering. What makes it different is the glide/portamento from low to high. I think the strings join in near the end of the glide as well. Almost any synth with a glide/portamento option could do this sound.

maybe I'm just too tired, but it sounds like a moog.

I think given the synths of the time, chances are it was one of those 3:

MemoryMoog

Prophet-5 (or 10)

Oberheim OB-8
