rhe Conservatory Expands.

The New ENGLAND Conservatory oil
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 1t was founded in 1853 by DR..
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 Ivers 4
Pond nianos. With the expansion in
cidental to 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
q total of 299.

this most critical of musical institutions.
