“In the corner stands our piano—it is a beautiful Duo-Art Grand—a Steinway" 
hark: someone is playing 
I T is Paderewski. He is playing the Milicary Polonaise of Chopin. We 
thrill at the vivid portrayal and, as we listen, there is borne to us by 
the music, a tale of the deathless devotion of the player and the composer 
for their country, their beloved Poland. 
The music ceases. 
There is a pause, and now, as delicate as old lace, as quaint and beautiful 
as a coat of brocade, his own Minuet. How crisp his touch, bow glorious 
his tone —his touch and his tone, none other. 
And now he is gone and another takes his place at the piano. It is Josef 
Hofmann. He is playing a Liszt Rhapsodie. How perfect his art. How 
faithfully it is mirrored by this Duo-Art medium. Truly it is a masterful 
performance. 
We have but to choose whom we would hear. Now it is de Pachmann 
or perhaps Siloti, who has sat at Liszt's side and learned his art from the 
great immortal. Nowit is Friedman with his marvelous color and tech¬ 
nique; or the great Frenchman, Cortot; Gabrilowitsch, the poet; the 
evfr-charming Percy Grainger; the scholarly Harold Bauer; the delightful 
Ganz.

list of the Classics interpreted by the world's,greatest Pianiscsl
