SAUER TO KNABE
During my artistic tour through the United States
your Concert Grands have been my true friends and
allies. The expectations which had been raised very
high by the authoritative judgment of my friend Dr.
Von Bulow,I found not only confirmed but very much
surpassed. The fluent singing tone always pervaded
with nobility, a remarkable equalness of register and
impeccable mechanism which places in the hands of
the player a whole scale of nuances in touch and
renders possible magical variations of strength even
in the most rapid jeu perle—mark the Knabe piano as
a power in the field of pianoforte building. Your in-
struments invite to playing as the sun invites to out-
side exercise.
I do not hesitate, gentlemen, to cordially congrat-
ulate you on this triumph of American art. With
sincere respects
Yours respectfully,
