Dear Sirs: Having had the pleasure of playing the world-wide
known Knabe pianos during my present concert tour of the United States,
I cannot refrain from expressing my gratification at their superiority. I
have heard much about them from my fellow artists, but must say they
more than realised my expectations. Under the most exacting and con-
stant use they proved their high excellence in all directions. Their
power and volume impressed me most profoundly and the delicacy and
musical quality of their tone could not be surpassed. In the most in-
tricate pianistic passage work their touch responded promptly, I may say
instanteously, and I feel impelled to compliment you on the high artistic
eminence which you have so deservedly attained in the pianoforte man-
ufacture.
I have the honor to remain,
Yours admiringly,
MARK HAMBOURG.
