that the reduction Of weight must in

gives you command of Cline" 1t shows you
when and how to play-now gravely and ma
jestically, now brightly, with hurried, tripping
measure.
1t enables you to interpret with infinite
meaning-to introduce into your playing the
thousand little graces of tempo, the delicate
retards and rests and sprightly accelerations
that bring out the subtle beauty of the music.
1t makes of you, in fact, a finished artist
of the piano.
Another invention, likewise exclusive with
the Pianola, gives you command Of one of
the greatest of the pianist's arts causing the
melody to sing above the accompaniment.
At the same time it removes the cause of one
of the severest criticisms against the player
piano-the marring emphasis of the bass
the ~insistent and monotonous thump, thump
of deep chords whose presence should only
be suggested.
And still another invention takes care for
you of the difficult and highly technical art of
pedaling. 1t makes the loud" pedal serve
its proper purpose of sustaining harmonious
notes and chords instead of simply producing
loud, jangling tones, as it must if improperly
used.

So, one by one, problems quite unattain-
able by the "player-piano" are met by the
Pianola. The dulled melody is brought out.
The over-insistent bass is regulated. The
dead monotony of tempo is banished. The
'feelinglessness' is gone. AT a step you
enter into the wonderful heritage of musical
self-expression through music's most beautiful
and comprehensive instrument, the piano.
AT a step you feel the power to regulate mel
ody just as the great pianists do, who simply
do so because they possess the Emusic me-
chanics' which the Pianola supplies evenmore
effectively to you.
We want you to hear and know the Plan
ola-the real Pianola that towers unsteady
so far above the so-called "player-pianos" its
great success has brought upon the market.
So we invite you to visit Aeolian Hall. One

for that is instructive to everyone-simply by
a lack of music's mechanics-of mere note
knouiedge.
That door of music was opened at the
coming Of the Pianola. The scaffolding of
music, the notes themselves, it supplies. But
it can almost Immediately make of you-of
everyone-a true musician, because it enables
you to press your own music feeling into the
instrument with exactly the spirit of a great
pianist.
The only difference is that he has learned
