Paderewski Playing the Recording Piano in the Studio at Aeolian Hall 
Last Year the American Public Paid Over a Half 
Million Dollars to Hear Paderewski Play 
T his great sum was paid by individuals who 
had to go to a certain place at a certain time 
and listen to a program with the selection of 
which they had nothing whatever to do. 
The owner of a Duo-Art Reproducing Piano 
may hear Paderewski play whenever he desires. 
Moreover, he may select the program himself. 
Paderewski has recorded a large number of the 
finest and most popular compositions from his 
repertoire. To these he is adding yearly as he has 
a contract with The Aeolian Company to record 
for the Duo-Art during the balance of his musical 
life. 
There is no audible difference between the play¬ 
ing of Paderewski on the concert stage and a 
reproduction of his playing by the Duo-Art. Mr. 
Paderewski himself testifies to this. And so do 
the other great pianists of the world—-Hofmann, 
De Pachmann, Bauer, Busoni, Gabrilowitsch, Ganz, 
Grainger and many more, who record their play¬ 
ing exclusively for the Duo-Art.

obtainable both in Grand and Upright models
