Pavlowa and the Boston Grand Opera Company. The Steinway is the Piano used by nearly all of the world's great pianists, vocalists, and instrumentalists. The Steinway is the Piano used by the great majority of the best teachers of music throughout the world—in Portland alone the list of teachers using the Steinway totals more than a hundred. The Steinway is the Piano found in the homes of nearly all lovers of music, of people of discriminating tastes, and those who purchase only the BEST. There must be a reason why the Steinway is so pre-eminent. Indeed, there are scores of reasons why—mere words here cannot adequately express them—but if you will accord us the opportunity we will gladly show you why the Steinway is preeminent among Pianos. The Steinway is universally acknowledged the Standard by which all other Pianos are judged. In spite of its manifest superiority, the prices for Steinway Pianos are no higher than asked for competing makes. Uprights are priced from $525 and Grands from $800.  Convenient payment terms may be arranged.
