DEAR SIRS: —
It affords me special pleasure to express to you my great satisfaction with } 7 our instruments.
The same fully justify the distinguished renown which they enjoy, and I can only concur in the verdict
of Messrs. von Bulow and D'Albert, in emphasizing that the Knabe Pianos, before all in regard to mellow
and singing (gesangvollen) tone combined with power, respond to the highest demands. These qualities
united with a perfect mechanism place, "The Knabe Piano," at the head of the best American Instru-
ments, and I again beg to express my satisfaction that I have the use of the same for my entire American
Tour.
With highest esteem,
Yours trul} r ,
BKRNIIARD
STAVENHAGEN.
