TOSAQ presents David Bailey Sunday 23 FEBRUARY 2pm Christie Cinema Pipe Organ Kelvin Grove State College Theatre Book Now at: http://www.tosaq.com.au/events/david-bailey-2020/ Arguably Australia’s greatest silent film cinema organ accompanist, Queenslander David Bailey has also gained high praise in Australia and New Zealand as an eminent theatre organ recitalist. David has a style which is influenced by inter-war composers and performers, such a Sidney Torch, Paul Whiteman and the great jazz and blues singers. George Wright’s recordings also guided David with orchestral registrations and phrasing—and Bailey’s style is adventurous with a traditional foundation. Your will hear momentary takes of the great theatre organists of the golden era but with the flair and lustre of the Bailey sound! The Christie and David are well acquainted, so expect some great music from those pipes… David Bailey has honed his silent film presentations with most of the music scores written by him. (Very few films came with a score provided). This art is complex and involves providing music temperament to match the emotion of a particular silent film setting. David has mastered this art and it is a wonder to see the music and images interwoven “live”. Besides the two Laurel and Hardy short films (“Putting Pants on Phillip” and “That’s My Wife”), David Bailey will perform music selections from Rodgers and Hart, “The King and I”, and the 4Bs—Bacharach, Beatles, Beach Boys and Bangles. We are sure you will enjoy this fascinating application of cinema organ in silent film accompaniment and its exemplary use as a solo musical instrument—all in the expert hands of David Bailey.

    Rod Blackmore’s AUSTRALASIAN THEATRE ORGANS New South Wales section Best known location: Penn Hughes residence Bexley Composite Christie/WurliTzer theatre organ 2 manuals (later 4 manuals) 16 ranks now substantially incorporated into the Capri theatre 4/29 theatre organ, Goodwood, Adelaide, South Australia Jack Penn Hughes originated from South Australia and was a professional theatre organist throughout the 1930s- 1940s until the late 1950s featuring at many organs reviewed in this series, particularly in Sydney but also in New Zealand. He was also known as the “singing organist”. His last theatre residence was at the Plaza theatre, Sydney. Despite his musical talents, many found him to be personally irascible, and in his dealings with redundant theatre organs he bordered on the unconscionable. In all some 12 organs were acquired by him and sold on to others, it being claimed that the purchasers did not always receive the organs they expected, Hughes having retained the best features for himself. He has also been identified in the late 1930s with involvement in the installation of instruments in theatres, eg the Astra theatre, Parramatta, and the Astra theatre, Drummoyne. In about 1957 Hughes bought the 2/10 Christie organ from the Empire (later St. James) theatre, Dunedin, New Zealand, and in 1959 he acquired the 2/8 WurliTzer organ (opus #748) previously in the Plaza theatre, Sydney. These two organs formed the basis of his residence organ, initially utilising the Empire Christie console. Later, Hughes acquired the 4 manual secondary console previously installed with the WurliTzer organ (opus #1987) of the State theatre, Melbourne, Victoria, and connected it to his residence organ.

  • Entertaining the Classes
    Entertaining the Classes An archaeological investigation of historic cinemas in Metropolitan Adelaide, South Australia, and their development in relation to social class, 1896-1949 Antoinette Hennessy This thesis is subitted as partial requirement for the degree in Master of Cultural Heritage Management, Department of Archaeology, Flinders University November 2013 Declaration I certify that this thesis does not incorporate, without acknowledgment, any material previously submitted for a degree or diploma in any university; and that to the best of my knowledge and belief it does not contain any material previously published or written by another person except where due reference is made in the text. Name: Signature: Date: i Abstract This research analyses the influence of social class on the development of cinemas in metropolitan Adelaide during the period between 1908 to 1949 using a six-point business strategy (location, building, services, programming, airconditioning/ventilation and affordability), relating to the development of effective businesses. It assesses the validity of two competing theories of cinema histories, using a case study of metropolitan Adelaide, South Australia. The long-standing ‘embourgeoisement’ theory argued that cinemas and cinema- going underwent a gentrification process in which cinema proprietors gradually shifted their target demographic towards the wealthier middle classes, and made changes to venues according to middle class tastes and financial capabilities. During the 1970s, this position was questioned by proponents of the ‘revisionist’ theory, which argued that early film audiences were likely to be a mixture of class demographics, including the working, middle and wealthy classes. The results from this study largely supported the revisionist theory of early cinema development in Adelaide, South Australia.

  • Pipe Organs and Organ Building in the Northern Territory of Australia
    Pipe organs and organ building in the Northern Territory of Australia by D.B. Duncan Councillor, Organ Historical Trust of Australia June 2008 NT Organs St. Mary Star of the Sea Roman Catholic Cathedral, Smith Street, Darwin Residence of Michael Pfitzner Darwin Symphony Orchestra Introduction Organ building in the Northern Territory has been hampered by three major factors: the remoteness of the region, the smallness of its population; and the tropical climate that creates difficulties for the organ builder. Creating a pipe organ for climatic conditions has always taxed the skill of the organ builder and is often beyond the ability of builders more accustomed to milder climates. Quite apart from the extreme and prolonged heat and humidity of the tropics, there is also the devastating effect of cyclonic activity. This factor has been an important consideration in the supply of instruments to the northern regions of Australia. Nonetheless over a sixty year period from 1938 there have been three pipe organs in Darwin, two of which were in service and one installed but removed before it became playable. At the time of writing, there remains only one pipe organ in the Territory; the other two were removed in 1974. All of the central churches in Darwin city are serviced by electronic instruments, at least two of which are sophisticated modern organs of high calibre and quality. Only one of these churches has ever had a pipe organ. St. Mary Star of the Sea Roman Catholic Cathedral, Smith Street, Darwin 1938 E. F. Walcker & Cie, Ludwigsburg, Germany The organ and aboriginal choir c1960's The first St Mary’s Star of the Sea church was built by the Jesuits in the 1880s, and was destroyed within a few years by a cyclone.

The Galeria is one of the most beautiful areas in the Biltmore with a coffered ceiling and three-dimensional sculptures as well as large surfaces covered with oil paintings set in a wheel mosaic and in­ terspersed with bronze filigrees. The Crystal Ballroom, which will be the scene of our banquet, has the most elaborate ceiling in the Biltmore. Mounted in its con­ cave, domed surface is a single canvas of great proportion decorated with goddesses, cupids, satyrs and other mythical figures. Two mam­ moth crystal lighting fixtures, imported from Europe, are suspended from the ceiling to add a truly glittering effect.
