N organ that is without pipes or wind may well
indeed be called a new instrument.
The Hammond Organ, here pictured and described,
is not merely new; it represents in itself a revolution
so far-reaching as to be quite incalculable. New chapters
in our social history were opened when, two or three
generations ago, the telephone and the typewriter
arrived on the scene There can be no doubt whatever
that the advent of this new instrument must have an
equally startling significance in the world of music
Science and the laws of dynamics have been so harnessed
to the inventor's will that he has created an instrument
eminently suitable for the drawing room yet, when
occasion demands, powerful enough to fill a Cathedral
with a tone of great nobility and sweetness It is
remarkably adoptable for installation purposes The
minimum floor space which it needs never exceeds four
or five feet square
The actual "Furniture" of the instrument consists of
but two pieces the console and the power cabinet, which
is connected to the console by a cable and can be placed
in any convenient part of a room or building. The
number of cabinets may be multiplied for
large buildings, as required.
