Some months ago it wa· my privilege to announce the gift from Dr. l\Iatthew T. Mellon, a member of our Board of Trustee , of an organ for the Lorimer Chapel. It i t be made in Germany 1 y the E. F. \Valcker factory and to be in tailed at Colby probably in the spring of l!l·±ll. Because it will attract attention n account of many tum ual qualitie I think uur alumni will be intere. ted t hear some of the details . . \t about the turn of the century a number of mu ·ician and mu ic-lovers in Europe had the idea that organ were being built in the wrong ' ay. It wa ielt that the trend t \\'ard o-reater orchestral effect and toward the introduction of top imitating tringed in tru­ ments was bad. All agreed that it was natural and proper to have some top with tones like tho e of violin, violoncello, and double-bass. But the organ after all i a pecial in tru­ ment with a special job to do. .:\[ore than anything el e it mu ic hould re emble a chorus of flute . To make it compete with a large and varied orche tra i ion for clarity. Consequently a few builders et them elve to rever e the trend by empha izing the reeds and al o by regulating and teadying the "·incl pre sure. l\Iuch wa made of the diapasons. The new type of instrument was de igned to play polyphonic a contra_ted with harmonic music. The mu ic of Bach, for example, i polyphonic in that eYeral voice or melodies are heard simultaneously. The new organ make it po sible to hear the different voice more di tinctly and therefore to play Bach a he hould be played. The one that i being made for us is thus an organi t' organ, con tructecl to produce the effect a true organ-lover require . Becau e thi. type i so rare on thi ide of the . \tlantic it will un­ questionably attract the attention of musical speciali t throughout the country. One of the leader in thi movement for reform i the famou Dr. lbert chweitzer theologian, musician, and medical missionary who in rnOG wrote a pamphlet called ' The • rt of Organ-building and Organ-playing in Germany and France." In hi autobiography Dr. Schweitzer says: "It is not so much on the number of stop a- on how they are placed that the effect of an organ depend . An organ i complete if in addition to the pedal-board it ha a great-, a choir-, and a well-organ." Thi is just what our in trument will have. There will be 3 1 top with pedals and three manuals placed in the manner Dr. Sclrn·eitzer pre­ scribes. The organ will be imilar to one that Dr. Mellon gave many year ago to the ni­ ver ity of Freiburg in Baden and which was destroyed in the "·ar. The Walcker plant \Yhich fortunately surviYed the war i one of the few factories mentioned by Dr. Sch\\'eitzer a mea uring up to hi pecifications. Dr. Mellon ha now told us that he plans to bring Dr. Karl Matthaei to this country from Switzerland for the express purpose of dedicating our organ. Dr. l\fatthaei is one of Switzerland's leading organi t and is a director of the International Bach Society. \Vorel ha recently come that the organ should be ready for shipment in a couple of months. We hope to hold the dedication exerci e either at Commencement or early in the ummer. This gift mean that the Lorimer Chapel will have music worthy of it own dignity and beauty.
