JOHN SCHNEIDER
In the course of his FORTY-ONE YEARS with Knabe, JOHN
SCHNEIDER has seen this great piano advance in renown—in-
crease in popular and artistic favor—and consistently develop the
noble and voice-like beauty of tone which is a priceless and
unrivaled attribute of the Knabe.
For many years now JOHN SCHNEIDER has devoted his
activities to the technical and research work which has brought
the Knabe action to a point of EXQUISITE SENSITIVITY.
The artist in playing the Knabe is conscious of a ravishing
beauty of sound produced by a mechanism that permits an
immense range of tone color and dynamics achieved and con-
trolled with consummate ease.
This tone is awakened to its fullest splendor by the perfection
of the Knabe action.

are created the piano masterpieces with which great musicians have reached new heights
of glory. Through these portals go piano technicians whose scientific achievements have reduced the
possibility of human error in piano manufacture almost to the vanishing point. From the moment the
raw materials are checked in and tested in the Baldwin laboratories until Baldwin-made pianos
receive their final expert inspection, every Baldwin craftsman has at hand special tools and equipment
to supplement his own experienced judgment.
Many years ago the Baldwin executives of that day, with rare wisdom, picked the location for the
main Baldwin factory building opposite Cincinnati's beautiful Eden Park. The very environment con-
tributes inspiration to the supreme piano craftsmanship that has won for Baldwin-made pianos their
reputation for quality throughout the world.
