Page-2: More photos of the DeMajo Residence Pipe Organ
Another view of the music studio room
Wide angle view of the music studio located on the main floor of the DeMajo residence. The facade pipes in the photo are a fully speaking rank of string diapason pipes that were added, along with a DeMajo Organ Works constructed pipe chest, in order to allow more accurate performance of Classical literature along with facilities for the organ's native theatre music repertoire. The in-studio facade also gives the room more of the "feel" of a turn-of-the-century residence organ installation that perhaps would have been experienced with an Aeolian or Estey organ in an industrial era mansion installation.
 
 

 

On a recent trip through town, nationally acclaimed recording artist and A.T.O.S. president/CEO Ken Double, pays a visit to the DeMajo residence Wurlitzer.

 
And also while visiting Richmond, Theatre Organ Society International secretary Col. Jack Moelmann and Father Gus Franklin, T.O.S.I. president, are seen putting the DeMajo residence Wurlitzer through it's paces.

The panel above is a custom-built wind pressure monitoring panel built by DeMajo Organ Works. It allows check and monitoring of pressures on each division of the organ, at a glance, from anywhere in the chamber. This simplifies winding adjustments when tuning or voicing, and it allows periodic monitoring of blower performance and development of any leaks in the system.
