'Patentee of the Grand Piano Forte' (**1793)

"The upright piano-forte was, doubtless, taken from tho upright harpsichord, and we have always understood that it was the invention of an Englishman of the name of Hancock, a musical instrument maker resident in some part of Westminster. He was a man of much ingenuity, and produced several varieties in keyed instruments; amongst which we find the organised piano-forte, the portable grand piano-forte, and an instrument, also a pianoforte, in the shape of a spinnet. The portable grand, in its day, was a successful and desirable instrument, but has long since been superseded by instruments of the kind called kit grands, boudoir grands, pocket grands, and semi grands."

Of the Beauty and Agreeableness of a Piano-forte, as elegant ornamental Furniture for the mod splendid Apartment, no Person can be ignorant! and even in the few genteel Families, particularly in the Country, where there may not be any convenient Opportunity of learning to play, the Pleasure and Satisfaction of possessing an Instrumemt so valuable, with Books of all the most favourite Vocal and Instrumental Pieces, ready for occasional Visitors, must be highly gratifying to every Person of Taste and Sensibility.

'Piano-Handlung' (x1906)

LONDON - "Messrs. Harrison & Co. exhibit an upright piccolo, called the “utilitarian boudoir piano,” and made with the object of constructing a piano-forte at the least possible cost: the price of this instrument being eighteen guineas only. To effect this, several alteration shave been made. In the first place, there is only one string to each note; secondly, the keys are shorter and project less, by which the legs or scrolls usually put under the key-frame are saved ; and, thirdly, the action consists of a simple projection at the end of the key, which lifts the tail of the hammer directly, without the intervention of any hopper. It is in fact a return to the primitive single-action, with which the piano-forte was first made; the only difference being the variation in form necessary to apply it to the upright instrument. Although advocating cheapness, we cannot consider it desirable to obtain it by depriving the piano-forte of the improvements it has received, or by any other means calculated to deteriorate its quality."
