CZ LEO ORNSTEIN and the - This instrument is so miraculous and so amazing that words are futile to convey the story from one who has heard it to one who has not. To those who attended the recent concert at which Ornstein played so superbly, it was evident that the AMPICO'S reproduction of his playing was indeed ORNSTEIN. r ' In reproducing the playing of RACHMANINOFF, it is RACH MANINOFF. The recorded playing of LEVITZKI is LEVITZKI. It is equally true of any of the hundred or more pianists whose art is preserved for all time by this wonderful instrument. Nothing that the artist does when making the record escapes the AMPICO which catches and preserves it for its perfect reproductions. THIS WONDERFUL INSTRUMENT BRINGS INTO THE HOME ALL THE MUSIC YOU LOVE BEST BEAUTIFULLY PLAYED for the greatest pianists in the world- play it for you and it is always there to be heard whenever you wish. A cordial invitation is extended to all music lovers to hear the AMPICO at our studios. G. F.
