Dear Sirs I have to thank you for rirawins nty attention to that most wonderful invention, the Pianola. At first I was inclind to be dubious as to the results, but after listening ' to your rendition of several standard and classical compositions I win astonished and began to realize'its capabilities. To the student on the pianoforte it will be invaluable, as it will enable him to study any composition he may wish to learn in ail its details, .and hear how it ousht to be rendered when he plays it himself upon the piano ! without the aid of the Pianola. To the amateur who does not wish tO) spend time in mastering technical dif-nVulties. dif-nVulties. it will enable him to perform at once any composition of the erreat-est erreat-est masters perfectly; of course, thi.-5 will require a study of musical interpretation. inter-pretation. To the teacher who fears that this new invention will injure his business he will tind thnt his services will still be required in families to instruct how-to how-to use this adjunct to the piano, a.s he will be required to teach musical effects, interpretation of standard an I classical composition, etc.. bow t. phrase: in fact, nearly everything ex-ceot ex-ceot technique. To tho.se who merely- wish to use it , I for amusement and pleasure in listen- r ir.g to popular music, it will prove a I never-ending source of enjoyment. . - I I am. yours truly, I THOS.

Daynes Musi" Co., Salt Iika i City: j Gentlemen Feeling quite an Interest j in the Pianola, I am glad to write I something concerning it. at your re- f First !et me say. Welcome Pianola! I This instrument will certainly prove j to be one of extreme usefulness. i j That people in general can. by means j of the Pianola, become familiar with almost the entire literature for piano j means much. Love for the best in music will surely be the outcome. To- t day the pianos which are used but -little are probably greater in number ' c than those which are used much. The t ; Pianola will reverse this, I think. i i The piano players who are filling j homes with the best of music are few indeed. The Pianola will change this, ; J as it brings this accomplishment with- J . j in the reach of. we may say, all. The j j principle of tone production being cor- j rect in the Pianola, the tone is of i . course good. Owing to the fact that . the Pianola produces better and better '. results, according to the musical ability abil-ity of the performer, genuine music ! study will increase. As the Pianola re- j quires so little mechanical ability, the ; performer's attention can be given to i . the study of music itself. Taste and l judgment should therefore unfold s quickly if one is not already awake , t musically. A deeper interest in the playing of r great pianists will naturally result. ' f C. F. STAYNER.
