  • Silent Film Music and the Theatre Organ Thomas J. Mathiesen
    Silent Film Music and the Theatre Organ Thomas J. Mathiesen Introduction Until the 1980s, the community of musical scholars in general regarded film music-and especially music for the silent films-as insignificant and uninteresting. Film music, it seemed, was utili­ tarian, commercial, trite, and manipulative. Moreover, because it was film music rather than film music, it could not claim the musical integrity required of artworks worthy of study. If film music in general was denigrated, the theatre organ was regarded in serious musical circles as a particular aberration, not only because of the type of music it was intended to play but also because it represented the exact opposite of the characteristics espoused by the Orgelbewegung of the twentieth century. To make matters worse, many of the grand old motion picture theatres were torn down in the fifties and sixties, their music libraries and theatre organs sold off piecemeal or destroyed. With a few obvious exceptions (such as the installation at Radio City Music Hall in New (c) 1991 Indiana Theory Review 82 Indiana Theory Review Vol. 11 York Cityl), it became increasingly difficult to hear a theatre organ in anything like its original acoustic setting. The theatre organ might have disappeared altogether under the depredations of time and changing taste had it not been for groups of amateurs that restored and maintained some of the instruments in theatres or purchased and installed them in other locations. The American Association of Theatre Organ Enthusiasts (now American Theatre Organ Society [ATOS]) was established on 8 February 1955,2 and by 1962, there were thirteen chapters spread across the country.

  • Auditorium Theatre to Observe the 20Th Anniversary of Concerts There, Spon­ Twentyyears Sored by the Rochester Theatre Organ Soci­ Ety
    On January 17 there were 1702 in atten­ dance at the Auditorium Theatre to observe the 20th Anniversary of concerts there, spon­ TwentyYears sored by the Rochester Theatre Organ Soci­ ety. Ably led by Paul F. Doering, the Anni­ versary Committee worked nine months on the project. This writer participated in two TV spots on Channel 10, and coverage by of QT00 other media also heralded the event. Organist of the evening was Don Scott, protege of Rochester's Mr. Theatre Organ, Tom Grier­ son. Appropriately, Don had played the opening concert at the Auditorium on Janu­ Auditorium ary 21, 1967. Following intermission, former RTOS di­ rector and program chairman Don Hall was MC for a segment of recognition. Accompa­ TheatreConcerts nied by his usual cornball humor, he sum­ moned five of the original ''Founding Fa­ thers" to the stage: Stuart Moffatt, Jess Lit­ by Lloyd Klos tlefield, Frederick Dise, Clifford O'Kane and Rita Becker. Three others, Daniel and Oline Schultz and Dan Suter were unable to be pre­ sent. The names of 50 charter members were read, and a sprinkling of those present stood to applause. A plaque was presented to Tem­ ple Civic Center's Board Chairman Raymond Beardsley and Auditorium Theatre General Manager John Moriarity recognizing 20 years of RTOS-TCC liaison. It will be mounted in the inner lobby of the theatre. An anecdote contest supplied stories of humorous, embarrassing and unusual hap­ penings to RTOS during the past 20 years. Following the final organ number, an on­ stage reception was held featuring a cake shaped in the form of a theatre organ console.

  • Dwight Beacham the First Two Gifts and the Allen Organ Company Gave Him the Opportunity to Use What God Gave Him to Create the Sound That Was Always in His Head
    JOURNAL OF THE AMERICAN THEATRE ORGAN SOCIETY JULY | AUGUST 2020 www.atos.org The Right Man, in the Right Place, at the Right Time BY DOUG BEACHAM Allen Organ Company (All photos courtesy of the author publicity photo, circa 1998 except as noted) 16 THEATRE ORGAN In every generation a person comes along who has the right talent, the right personality and is in the right place to make a difference in his world. God gave Dwight Beacham the first two gifts and the Allen Organ Company gave him the opportunity to use what God gave him to create the sound that was always in his head. Dwight Beacham was a theatre organist who literally performed all over the United States and in several foreign countries, was a church organist from the age of 14, a music teacher, a choral director, and a groundbreaking organ designer, in a career that spanned over sixty years. The difference he made in the organ world is remarkable. Dwight was born in Glendale, California, May 14, 1946. His early years were spent in northeast Los Angeles and the San Fernando Valley. His family went to church every Sunday, just like most kids growing up in the ’50s, he played games with the neighborhood kids in the backyard and the family took annual vacation trips to Colorado chasing Narrow Gauge trains...his father loved those trains! As fate would have it, one year in the early ’50s Dwight’s father Wasn’t he cute? used his Christmas bonus to buy a Hi-Fi system. Remarkably, the system came with two George Wright LPs.
