“I think you will be glad to know that) since the Organ has
found its right and proper place after some experiment, it not only
sounds exceedingly well in the Theatre but that it most adequately
fulfils all the purposes for which we acquired it.
It is now possible to obtain the utmost variety of effect,
from the most subdued pianissimo to a fortissimo capable of filling
the largest building. Without doubt it is not only a remarkable,
but an wholly practical invention, and you should have no
difficulty in achieving a complete success with it."
EUGENE GOOSSENS
Conductor, Cincinnati Symphony Orchestra.
"The Hammond Organ, with its resonant volume of tone range,
is to my mind the most important instrumental development in
music of recent years . . it offers possibilities of which the
modern composer will certainly not be slow to avail himself.
Congratulations on a fine achievement!"
DR. SERGE KOUSSEVITZKY
Conductor, Boston Symphony Orchestra.
"I want you to know how satisfied and delighted we were with
the Hammond Organ, used for the first time at our concert in a
performance of Liszt's 'Faust' Symphony. My congratulations
on your remarkable achievement."
CANON F. WILKINSON
St. Augustine's, Darlington.
"It is now over five months since we had the Hammond Organ
installed and I want to tell you how pleased we are with the
instrument. The soft tone effects are delightful, while there
is a reserve of power that is remarkable in so small an
instrument."
MR. WESTLAKE MORGAN
in" The Church Musidan."
"I think the Hammond Organ is a Godsend to Churches that
are confined as to organ space."
