Q When the house of STEIN WAY & SONS was founded in America in 1853
there were few, if any, who would have predicted that that modest beginning,
that acorn, if you will, would grow into such a world-wide enterprise—an
industrial oak whose fruitage would be scattered to the ends of the earth.
(J[ But behind that inceptive move were fixed ideals, expressed in the one
thought TO MAKE THE BEST POSSIBLE PIANO, irrespective of cost, effort
and time spent in the attainment of this end—as well as the farsightedness of
the first STEIN WAY, who perceived the boundless opportunities which the
new world would afford for their development and realization.
CJ Steadfastly and unerringly those ideals have been adhered to by succeeding
generations of the STEINWAY FAMILY as a sacredly guarded legacy, and in
consequence the STEINWAY PIANO has gained a pre-eminent position in
the world's centers of music and art.
(J In recognition of their great achievements in the realm of tone, honors and
distinctions have been showered upon the STEINWAYS by the crowned heads
of Europe, and the sway of the STEINWAY PIANO has been gratefully
acknowledged by leading musical and scientific societies everywhere. It is
generally conceded that to-day the STEINWAY occupies a supreme place in
art circles in all lands—a position that is not only unique among pianos&but
among American art in every phase.
