The Conservatory Expands.

The New England Conservatory of
Music is about to move into its beautiful
new buildings on the Back Bay. This
is the largest school of music in the
world, and its pre-eminence among
American institutions has been conceded
ever since it was founded in 1858 by DIR.
Eben Tourjee.
Twenty years ago, when the depart
ment of pianoforte instruction was being
developed, few Ivers & Pond pianos
were purchased. Since then, as the con-
servatory has expanded, there have
gradually been acquired 26S lvers Il
Pond pianos. With the expansion in
cidental 70 moving into the new build
ing, the board of directors of the con-
servatory have placed their order for 81
additional Ivers & Pond pianos, making
a total of 300.
Higher tribute TO this famous Boston
art product would be hardly possible
than 20 years continued patronage by
this most critical of musical institutions.

newspaper of New England, in its issue
