H
Piano Poin tsfor Consideration
So important is the purchase of a piano that it should never be undertaken unless one has a vivid
conception of the qualities that make for piano value.
Primarily, the piano is a musical instrument; incidentally, of course, it is an ornament. Its
main function, therefore, is to give music.
In comparing; the merits of various pianos, the purchaser should first determine which piano
gives the very finest music Without the proper tone, a piano is little more than a piece of furni
ture ; but with a quality of tone that is pure, clear and pleasing to the ear, it becomes the greatest
aid in the development of musical talent in the young;, and of the appreciation of the best in music
in every member of the family.
The purchaser should next consider the durability of the piano. He should be well aware of
the construction of the pianos offered for his use.
Unless a piano can maintain its tone, stand up under hard usage for years after the newness has
worn off, it is unworthy of consideration.
The design and finish of a piano should make a strong appeal to the eye. Tastes differ as to
what is the most beautiful in piano case designs, so the line offered should have sufficient variety
to permit a satisfactory choice.
A selection based on the points given: musical quality, durability of construction, the utmost
beauty of design, will result in satisfaction. ,
