STEINWAY Cfjtrfcmng
One of the contributory reasons why the Steinway
Piano is recognized as
P IA N 0 S
The World's Standard
may be found in the fact that since its inception it
has been made under the supervision of members of
the Steinway family, and embodied in it are certain
improvements found in no other instrument.
It is not merely the combination of wood, felts and
metals, but it is the knowing how to combine them in
order to produce the highest musical results which
has made the Steinway the piano by which all others
arc measured.
For over eighty-four years the leading exponents of
the latest developments in pianoforte construction

The Weber Piano Co.
THE STRADIVARIUS OF PIANOS
BOSTON,
New York, May the 4th, 1908.
To the Weber Piano Company:
GENTLEMEN:—It seems to me superfluous to give you in writing
my appreciation of your instruments. Practically you do not need it.
I have been playing the Weber for seven months in this country
and this fact alone proves more than anything which could be said
or written. Whatever "disinterested" detractors may object to,
had I not found in your pianos a perfect medium for my art 1
would have never played them in public.
But you insist upon having my opinion. So let me say this:
For the first time I do not feel tired of piano-playing after a
long concert tour. I gave during the season ninety-three perfor-
mances and my fingers are not sore, my arms are not aching, my
nerves and muscles are as strong and fresh as on the day of my
arrival. This is entirely due to the supreme qualities of your in-
struments : positive perfection of mechanism, exceptionally easy
production of tone, its beautiful singing quality, and, in spite of it,
its marvellous clearness.
There is an unquestionably great progress in piano-playing
among the American public; there must be a progress in piano-
making. You have realized it. The public will not fail to recognize
your merit.
Most sincerely yours,
I. J. PADEREWSKI.
