T-J L..:U - Aue i luuae uiut i leppe uuui $ Founded in 1865 ,IU-I CECIS sss DUO-ART PIANOLA-PIANO brin; your very home ACTUAL playing of the world's greatest pianists I LEASE please dismiss from your mind the possibilities and performances of the ordinary player-piano. The Duo-Art Pianola-Piano is something quite apart a masterly forward stride of genius product of the famous Aeolian Company, largest makers of musical instruments in the world. Just as their Pianola's roll-playing feature which, while embracing the piano, added something new and vtal to that instrument, so now, their Duo-Art, while it embraces the Pianola, possesses the mar velous additional ability to reproduce the actual key-board performances of any noted pianist, with absolute verity. Just consider for a moment the significance of this statement. The world's greatest pianists are recording Duo-Art music rolls. Thousands of their concert pieces have been played and are being played into these rolls for permanent pres ervation. Therefore, with the Duo-Art Pianola Piano, one acquires absolute command in one's own home of the genius of such masters of the piano as Paderewski, Bauer, Busoni, Gabrilo ".tsch, Grainger and scores of others, who at any moment will step to youipiano-f orte and play, will actually equal their best performances upon the concert stage. The voices of the world's greatest singers have been reproduced with wonderful fidelity on the Victrola now the Duo-Art, with" flawless exactness, repeats the performances of" eminent pianists with identical reproduction of technique, tone, tempo and pedaling. Neither the mechanism of the instrument nor the perforated music roll will add or detract in the slightest detail as the artist played, so one hears. No description of this instrument's wonderful powers can approach the instant comprehension that comes with hearing it. And think of it, by the touching of a small lever, the Duo-Art becomes a regular Pianola, playing any player-piano musifc rolls and offering the performer unlimited scope for the exercise of his own powers of interpreta tionor it may be used for hand-playing at any" time. The, Duo-Art Pianola-Piano is built only in the fol lowing Pianos all of which are sqjd by this house. Steinway Weber jSteck Stroud Prices begin at $795 The Duo-Art Pianola-Piano is guaranteed, for ten years, both by the Aeolian Company and "The House that Heppe built." Seiid for Duo-Art Catalog C. J.
