WAGNER & LISZT painted for the Steinway Collection by N C WYETHSTEINWAYTHE INSTRUMENT OF THE IMMORTALSOccasionally the genius of man produces some masterpiece of art—a symphony, a book, a painting—of such surpassing greatness that for generation upon generation it stands as an ideal, unequaled and supreme. For more than three score years the position of the Steinway piano has been comparable to such a masterpiece—with this difference: A symphony, a book, a painting, once given to the world, stands forever as it is. But the Steinway, great as it was in Richard Wagner’s day, has grown greater still with each generation of the Steinway family. From Wagner, Liszt and Rubinstein down through the years to Paderewski, Rachmaninoff and Hofmann, the Steinway has come to be “the Instrument of the Immortals” and the instrument of those who love immortal music.Steinway & Sons and their dealers have made it conveniently possible for music lovers to own a Steinway.Prices: $875 and up, plus freight at points distant from New York.STEINWAY & SONS, Steinway Hall, 109 E. 14th Street, New York

STEINWAY

THE INSTRUMENT OF THE IMMORTALS

Occasionally the genius of man produces some masterpiece of art—a symphony, a book, a painting—of such surpassing greatness that for generation upon generation it stands as an ideal, unequaled and supreme. For more than three score years the position of the Steinway piano has been comparable to such a masterpiece—with this difference: A symphony, a book, a painting, once given to the world, stands forever as it is. But the Steinway, great as it was in Richard Wagner’s day, has grown greater still with each generation of the Steinway family. From Wagner, Liszt and Rubinstein down through the years to Paderewski, Rachmaninoff and Hofmann, the Steinway has come to be “the Instrument of the Immortals” and the instrument of those who love immortal music.
