THE BEST PIANO ?
Because a Steimvay, only, fully measures to the re
quirements of a real piano. It is an instrument that
embraces the musical qualities of all other instruments.
Therefore, it is orchestral in effect; the only limit to its
use being the capability of the hands on its keys. For
this reason, Steimvay tone is unique a standard of its
0Wn a quality that no other instrumental voice even
remotely approaches. Other
