The highest endorsement that a reproducing instrument can receive
is the decision of a great artist to record his art for that instrument only.
The leading pianists of our day have contracted to play exclusively for the
Duo-Art Piano. It is not only the greatest Reproducing Piano in exist-
ence—it is the only instrument of its type that is entirely satisfying to the
great pianists.
