  • 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.

  • C600 Theatre Organ Project Part-1
    C600 Organ Project. Part-1 Building the Console C600 Theatre Organ Project Part-1 Arthur W. Critchley, Dip. El., C.Eng., M.I.E.E., P.Eng. Classic Organ Works, Markham, Ontario, Canada Introduction This article, in several parts, describes the building of a theatre organ using Hauptwerk virtual organ software. It covers the entire project from obtaining a suitable console, how it was built, and how to set up the Hauptwerk software. While it describes one particular organ, the principles can be applied to other organ projects. Hopefully, some of the problems encountered can be avoided by other builders. The organ described is eventually intended to be installed in a home so has only a moderate audio ca- pability, but for the first part of its existence has been used as a test bed for Classic Organ Works while exploring the problems associated with Hauptwerk software. As this is an on-going project, some of the latest information may not have been included and some information may be questionable. If the reader notices any errors, I would be pleased to know about them. Acquiring the Beast Some time during 2001, Classic Organ Works was offered a Devtronix theatre organ by a private individual in Etobicoke, Toronto. Devtronix organs had been supplied as kits and Jim Anderson, then a member of the Toronto Theatre Organ Society, had built one around 1979. Unfortunately, he had died during 1999 and his widow died two years later. The family then wanted to sell the house but lurking in the basement was this humongous white organ console.
