greater part of them having been out for one season only, just sufficiently
long to test their standing capabilities, are in this respect SUPERIOR TO
NEW, as it is well known that thoroughly New Instruments, even by the Best

use. These Instruments will be offered at such a Reduction from the Original
Price as cannot fail to effect speedy Sales ; and as all Instruments
Purchased now will be WAREHOUSED FREE TILL REQUIRED, an early visit is
respectfully requested. Parties who prefer an entirely New Instrument will

"PATERSON,
SONS & CO., PIANOFORTE, HARMONIUM, AND AMERICAN ORGAN WARE-ROOMS, 152,
Buchanan Street, Glasgow - THE spread of musical knowledge and culture in
England and Scotland during the last half-century is a subject of
congratulation to our so-called “unmusical nation.” We have probably made
more genuine progress in this most interesting and universal of all the arts
than has any other nation in modern times — a fact which is pretty well
indicated in the manner in which leading British composers are now gaining
recognition and applause abroad. The dissemination of good music among the
people is largely dependent upon the enterprise of the music trade, and in
this connection it is a pleasure to mention the name of Messrs. Paterson,
Sons & Co., who have done so much for the cause of the “divine art” in North
Britain. This eminent firm, founded very early in the present century, are
leaders of the trade in Scotland, and have built up one of the largest and
most successful music businesses in Europe, having, in addition to their
Glasgow house and their famous establishment in George Street, Edinburgh,
branches at 34,Newmarket Street, Ayr; 100, English Street, Dumfries; King
Street, Kilmarnock; Terrace Buildings, Paisley; Reform Street, Dundee; and
17, Princes Street, Perth. The Glasgow establishment, with which we are now
more particularly concerned, is a very handsome and commodious warehouse,
finely situated in Buchanan Street, and affording every convenience for a
high-class music trade.
On the ground floor is a noble sale-room and show-room, stocked with every
requisite of the trade, including all the new music of the day, and all the
best editions of standard and classical works. The fact that the firm hold a
special appointment as music-sellers to the Queen, and that they are
patronised by the elite of the profession and of amateur musical circles,
affords a sufficient guarantee of the completeness and high character of the
stock in their music department. Equally notable is their department for
musical instruments, upon which great care is bestowed, and the remarkable
variety of instruments displayed in their show-rooms (to speak only of
pianofortes, harmoniums, and American organs) is explained by the
circumstance that they are sole agents here for such celebrated makers as
Steinway & Sons, Bechstein of Berlin, Kirkman & Son, Squire & Sons, the
Brooklyn Pianoforte Company, and the Estey Organ Company. The fine
instruments of all these and various other esteemed makers are well
represented in the firm’s splendid stock, an inspection of which will reveal
the wonderful degree of perfection to which the art of musical-instrument
manufacture has been carried in these times. It is not for us to pronounce
an opinion as to the comparative merits of the various instruments here on
view. Messrs. Paterson have solved a difficult problem by making a selection
sufficiently comprehensive to satisfy the tastes and requirements of every
cultivated musician. One player likes one maker, another prefers another,
and it is for the seller to provide for all demands likely to be made upon
him. This Messrs. Paterson have done, with the one reservation that no
instruments of inferior make or unreliable quality are admitted into their
ware-rooms. They have an unblemished reputation of many years’ standing to
maintain, and they consistently refrain from lending the influence of their
well-known name to promote the sale of any instrument in which they are
unable to place their confidence. The present principals of this
representative music firm are Messrs. R. R. Paterson, Alexander Murray,
William Murray, and John Murray, all of whom possess a thorough knowledge of
their interesting trade in its every detail. They personally attend to the
affairs of the business, and supervise its routine with untiring energy and
sound judgment. Mr. Paterson manages the Edinburgh house, and Mr. Alexander
Murray the Glasgow one; while Mr. John Murray takes charge of the important
branches at Ayr, Dumfries, and Kilmarnock. The firm are known throughout the
musical world as publishers, music-sellers, and musical-instrument dealers,
and no house in the trade enjoys the support of a more valuable connection.
As music appeals to every heart and mind that is rightly constituted, and
exerts its refining influence alike in the cottage of the artisan and in the
castle of the prince, it is appropriate that in this volume of reviews,
dealing with a wide range of representative trades and industries, space
should be found for a brief mention of a firm whose energies have been be
effectively applied to the advancement of the one art that is universal—the
one art that speaks intelligibly in every language, and is hampered by no
law of race, or condition of social status."

"LARGE
EXTENSION OF PREMISES. - PATERSON & Sons respectfully inform their numerous
clients and the public generally that in order to meet the requirements of
their extensive business they have acquired the adjacent commodious premises
recently occupied by the Edinburgh Subscription Library, which have been
entirely remodelled and handsomely decorated. The large saloon, which will
be occasionally used for concert purposes, is in the meantime stocked with a
magnificent selection of Pianofortes by all the greatest English,
Continental, and American makers (for the most important of which they are
the sole importers for Scotland) ; and while the great makers are largely
represented, the better class of cheaper makers find a large place, and a
visit by intending purchasers to their new premises will be well repaid.
These fine instruments may all be had on their special three years' hire
system. SOLE CONSIGNEES FOR THE Steinway and Bechstein Pianos, The Estey

"NEW PATENT SEMI-GRAND
PIANOFORTE, Manufactured nr Messrs Bboadwood And Sons. ROBERT PURDIE
respectfully announces the arrival of Messrs Broadwood's Newly-Invented
PATENT SEMI-GRAND PIANOFORTE, Just Received at his Warehouse, being the only
place in Scotland where those elegant and unique Instruments are to be seen.
The Nobility, Gentry, and Music Professors, are invited to inspect and try
those beautiful Instruments. The Semi-Grand Piano possesses great
advantages, occupying much less space than the ordinary Horizontal Grand
Piano, being very little larger than aSauare Pianoforte; they are in compass
Six Octaves, from F to F, with two Unisons and a Metallic Plate; and
although the Tone is not so powerful as Messrs Broadwood's Patent Grand
Piano, yet of the same rich quality, and the touch delicate and light, with
soft and loud Pedals. The Price is about one-third less than the Patent
Grand Pianoforte.
R. PURDIE has also just received a large addition to his extensive Stock of
Grand, Cabinet, and Square PIANOFORTES, both In Elegant and Plain Cases,
with all the latest improvements; also Double and Singlo Movement HARPS.
SPANISH GUITARS, in great variety, FLUTES, and other MUSICAL INSTRUMENTS,
too numerous tor the limits of an advertisement.
A variety of SECOND-HAND PIANOFORTES, at all prices, many of which are very
little worse than new, having been only a few months In use. A very large
assortment of NEW MUSIC, to which is regularly added all the New
Publications of merit as soon as they appear in London. The MUSIC LIBRARY is
extensive, and the New Publications added. Terms of Subscription the same as
heretofore. Instruments Exchanged, Lent on Hire, Tuned, and Repaired, in pie
best manner, In town and country, as usual., London Pianoforte Warehouse,
No. 83, Prince's Street, opposite the Mound, Edinburgh, 23d April, 1831."

"LOW-PRICED PIANOFORTES. [...] In the choice
of a pianoforte, so much must depend on the character of the maker for
giving assurance of quality and durability, that the productions of makers
as yet devoid of a name are generally felt to be unworthy of consideration.
Nevertheless, having expressed a desire to see pianofortes brought down to
twenty pounds, we feel bound to notice the first intimation which reached us
of this being accomplished. "
