It is a super-piang, the work of a New Jersey inventor, Benjamin Franklin Miessner, and it recently City ter. The strange thing about this in- strument is that, while only the size of a Colonial spinet, it is capable of producing music of a volume al most equal to that of a giant pipe organ. The little piano, by a mere turn of a knob, can be made to sound like either an old tinkling harpsichord. an organ. a ‘cello or a regular piano. This super-piano, despite its di« minutive size Is really several in- struments in one, and yet it has not one single square inch of sound- board. It works electrically, the! sounds of its strings being picked up electronically and amplified in such a way that its tones can be sustained. “swelled” and diminish- ed while the player holds his finger on the keys, just as in the case of the organ.
