THE MUSIC TRADE REVIEW
CLOUGH & WARDEN P
The Clough & Warren Co., of Detroit,
Mich, are among the important members
of the industry who have experienced an
unparalfeled measure of prosperity since
the new century made its debut. This is true
of both branches of this business—piano and
organs. Their new styles of piano have
found, and are finding, many admirers, and
this is best demonstrated by the orders which
are reaching the Clough & Warren Co. every
day from widely separated sections of this
great country. Their imposing roster of
agents has recently been augmented by the
names of many dealers ranking high in
the trade—men most competent to differ-
entiate in the matter of piano values. The
Clough & Warren Co. are destined to close
a record-breaking year.
SORRENTINO TO LUDWIG.
The exhibit of pianos made by Ludwig
& Co. at the Pan-American Exposition con-
tinues to excite the most enthusiastic expres-
sions of praise from eminent musicians. The
latest is from Eugenio Sorrentino, cele-
brated as composer and director of the wide-
ly-known "Banda Rossa," who writes:
Messrs. Ludwig & Co.:
Gentlemen:—The Pan-American Ludwig
pianos, in my estimation, are rich, pure, deep
and melodious in tone, exceedingly light to
the touch, and fully justify their reputation
as being among the most popular of artis-
tic American pianos in the many cities I
have visited with the Banda Rossa. These
1901 specimens of the Ludwig production
impress the fact that you are keeping well
to the front in the progressive march.
Yours truly,
Eugenio Sorrentino.
SUSTAINED PIANO NOTES.
An apparatus has been invented which is
designed to sustain the notes of the piano
as in the flute or violin. A row of delicate
electrical contracts is connected with the
keyboard and with a row of little electro-
magnets in front of the strings, so that while
any key is pressed the corresponding mag-
net keeps its strings in continuous vibration
with rlutelike effect. A knee swell throws
the attachment into action, and when this
is not being pressed the piano has its usual
tone.
KOHLER & CAMPBELL.
Good progress is being made with the new
Kohler & Campbell factory, which, when com-
pleted, will be one of the most capacious
as well as one of the most substantial and
best equipped manufacturing establishments
in the city. An idea of the magnitude of
the business of this institution may be de-
duced from the fact that they recently
placed an order with Davenport & Treacy
for 10,000 plates to be delivered before De-
cember, 1901.
Herman Straube, Chicago, Martin Straube,
Naperville, and Charles Jacobson, of Down-
er's Grove, 111., have organized a company
entitled "Straube Bros." for the manufac-
ture of pianos, and have leased the old Club
Block in Downer's Grove, 111., for that pur-
pose. The name which they will stencil
on their instruments has not yet been de-
cided upon.
