Chicago. 111. cui-ru \ / C A D 50TM YEAR PRAISE for the new STEINWAY ACCELERATED ACTION from Rachmaninoff (EMINENT PIANIST AND COMPOSER) This is to tell you that I consider the New Steinway Accelerated Action a great improvement, and that I have found your pianos more perfect during the past two seasons than ever before. Damrosch (EMINENT DIRECTOR AND PIANIST) Steinway & Sons have always been in the forefront as regards any further developments of the piano. For me it has always seemed well nigh perfect, but your recent invention, the Steinway Accelerated Action, makes the manipulation of the keyboard still more sensitive to the most delicate emotional currents emanating from the fingers of the player. Many other great artists of national and international fame; masters of the piano and symphony orchestra conductors; composers, learned technicians in musical tone perfection and tone production, endorse in like manner this Steinway piano-perfection achievement.
