PADEREWSKI
The World's Greatest Pianist
Who appears in concert Tuesday Evening,
March 20, at the Omaha Auditorium, pays the
following tribute to
The STEINWAY
“The Instrument of the Immortals"
Messrs. Stein way & Sons.
Gentlemen:
“The supreme qualities
of your instruments have
been for many years uni
versally recognized, rub
lie and individuals, ama
teurs and artists, have
been looking upon your
pianos as a standard of
perfection. Whenever per
fection is attained, prog
ress is stopped; for there
is no room for climbing
when the summit has been
reached. And yet, in your
case, this law of nature
seems to have been de
fied.
“Is there anything
which could demonstrate
more convincingly the
wealth of resJRirces of your firm, the astonishing vitality
of your house? Rut there is in it something to rejoice
the heart of everyone who is devoted to his profession;
young men inherit fame and fortune, general respect
and universal recognition most, legitimately acquired by
the genius, industry and honest, persistent labor of their
illustrious forefathers. Instead of simply enjoying life,
instead of dwelling passively upon the golden ancestral
laurels, they concentrate, in noble, ambitious efforts, all
their energy and up they go to a higher plane and,
indeed, they reach still higher regions.
‘‘Such a thing can only lie accomplished by a sincere
, love of profession, and it is to 1 his love of profession
that I wish to pay my tribute of high esteem and ad
miration. Most faithfully yours,
I. J. PADEREWSKI.”
Do not fail to hear the World’s Greatest Diving Pianist, sup
ported by the World’s Greatest Piano, 'The Steinway. You are
cordially invited to visit our Steinway Parlors, where you will find
a complete line of these world-famed Instruments for your
inspection. New York prices guaranteed. Moderate monthly pay
ments arranged to .nit the convenience of the purchaser, if desired.
