The Amazing New
WELTE-MIGNON Musicalle
makes possible for the first time an hour of uninter-
rupted music by the great pianists of the world . .
At the touch of a button . . .
without moving from your chair . .
TURN BACK the calendar twenty-four
years . . . From the House of Welte
came the announcement in 1904 of an
instrument which
exactly reproduced the play-
ing of the master pianists. . . .
Today—twenty-four years later—the WELTE-
MIGNON Corporation announces
the second
truly great and significant step in the progress
of musical reproduction . . . the WELTE-
MIGNON Musicalle.
. . . A woman relaxes in the soft depths of
her favorite chair . . .
On the table by her
side rests a small tablet with eight ivory but-
tons . . . She presses one . . . From her
superb piano, a WELTE-MIGNON, flow the
magic strains of a Chopin Nocturne . . .
Paderewski is playing . . . Silence for a mo-
ment . . . the silence of appreciation . . .
She touches another button, choosing at ran-
dom . . . Josef Hofmann—playing
Mendels-
sohn's "Rondo Capriccioso."
In modern mood
she turns to Gershwin. . . "The Rhap-
sody in Blue" . . .
For an hour or more, she
revels in the world's great piano music . . .
never moving from her chair . . .
. . . . This is the new WELTE-MIGNON
Musicalle. . . . . . .
Such simplicity of operation has never before
been achieved in musical reproduction.
Every
annoying interruption is banished . . . no
dials to turn . . . no rerolling . . .
no changing of records.
The Musicalle is a cabinet containing eight
records and the silent mechanism for control-
ling them.
It is connected with the piano by
a small, easily concealed cable. A tablet,
scarcely larger than a small book of verse,
operates the Musicalle—resting inconspicuously
on a table or stand in your library . . .
your music room . . . your dining room
. . . wherever you wish.
Of course, there will be times when you
yourself desire to play. Remember that the
Musicalle leaves your piano wholly at your
disposal—unaffected in appearance, action or
tone.

Reproducing Mechanism installed in other
makes of Grand Pianos. Prices on request.
