GERM MAN
IMPERIAL APPOINTMENTS

The news reaches us by way of Lon
don that Messrs. Steinway & Sons have
been honored with the appointment of
piano manufacturers to their imperial
majesties, the emperor and empress of
Germany-the first bestowed upon an
American manufacturer. This cannot
fail to be hailed with considerable satis-
faction in musical circles throughout
Germany, when we consider the impetus
given the higher forms of German art
the symphonic productions of the old
and modern masters OF orchestral writ
ing-through the fundamentally Of
Steinway & Sons, whose efforts in Great
ing, fostering and expanding the culti-
vation of music among the American
masses, and making known through vir-
tuosi in the concert room the rich stores
of piano-forte literature is known to
musicians the world over.
This latest honor bestowed upon the
American house speaks eloquently for
the international prestige won by the
Steinway piano in the most select and
cultivated European circles.
