1892 - "In Northampton Street Messrs. Barnett Samuel & Sons' organ factory likewise is in full swing. Independently of their well-known old styles, they are producing now a one-row organ with divided octave coupler, in a carved solid walnut case; also a one-and-a-halfrow organ with double couplers, in handsomely designed walnut case. Both instruments are at a moderate price. At Worship Street the sale of the Chicago Cottage Organ is rapidly extending. The demand increased so suddenly during last month that their stock was temporarily quite denuded, and they had to cable for fresh supplies. Style 55, of which Messrs. Barnett Samuel & Sons sold over five hundred in Great Britain, is still a favourite, but is likely to be run hard by the new Style 905. " Music Trades Review, 1892, p. 29

(continuation)

"Pianoforte. Dies ist gegenwärtig das allgemein beliebte Saiten-Instrument, welches in London so vorzüglich verfertigt, und von da fast in alle Gegenden der Welt verfandt wird. Die Einführung ist neu, und von deutscher Abkunst, wie mir Herr Schoene folgendermaßen erzählt hat. Man hatte nämlich vorhin in Deutschland sogenannte „Hammerklaviere, in welchen nur hölzerne Hammer gegen die Saiten schlugen. Johannes Zumpe, ein Klaviermacher aus Fürth, wollte sich in London niederlassen. Vor seiner Hinreise, munterte Bach (vermuthlich der verewigte Hamburgische) ihn auf, das Hammerklavier, nach der jezigen Art, zu verbessern, d. i. mit Leder anzuschlagen, und Dämpfer anzubringen. Daher der Namen Pianoforte. Es war im J. 1705, als Zumpe die ersten kleinen Pianofortes in London verfertigte. Sie erhielten den bekannten Beifall, und sind seitdem zu größeren Vollkommenheiten gebracht worden. Nach dem Ableben von Zumpe, wurde defen Fabrik von seinem Landsmann, den schongedachten Schoene, fortgesetzt. Gegenwärtig lautet die Firma: Schoene und Reyh. Manchem Liebhaber möchte das Verzeichniß ihrer Artikel, nebst den beigefügten Preisen nicht unwillkommen seyn. Große oder Royal-Pianofortes (Grand Pianofortes), von sechs Oktaven, 85 Guineas; Do. von 5. Okt. 75 Guin. kleine (Small Pianofortes) mit zirkelrunden Enden, 6 Okt. 3 Pedale, 60 Guineas; Do. 54 Okt. 54. Guineas; Do. viereckig, 6 Okt. 46 G.; Do. do. 5. Okt. 40 G.; Do.do. kleiner, 54 Okt. 32 G. Die folgenden find ohne Zusatz-Tasten (Additiona Keys): viereckige, 6 Fuß lang, 36 G.; Do. 54 Fuß, 26 G.; die gemeinen und kleinsten, 20 Guineas. Diese Preise sind von Schoene und Reyh; ähnliche gute Arbeiten können von andern wohl nicht zu geringeren Preisen geliefert werden. Es sind kurante Preise; nach Beschaffenheit der Bestellungen, finden natürlich auffrordentliche Statt. Reise-Pianofortes (Travelling Pianofortes) sind nur 3 Fuß lang, und haben 4 Oktaven, 12 Guineas; sie werden lediglich für Rußland gemacht. Alle die übrigen gehen nach Spanien, Amerika, Rußland und in geringeren Quantitäten, nach mehreren Weltgegenden."

"Na het overlijden van SUMPE [sic], werd deszelfs Fabriek door zijn landsman, den voornoemden SCHOENE, voortgezet. Tegenwoordig luidt de Firma SCHOENE en REIJK. Menig liefhebber zal het register hunner artikulen, met bijgevoegde prijzen, niet welkom zijn.

"MESSRS. SCHOTT & CO., MUSIC SELLERS TO THE QUEEN, MUSIC PUBLISHERS AND IMPORTERS,
157 AND 159, REGENT STREET, W. -
ORGANISED at St. James’s Street in the year 1835 as a branch establishment of the famous German publishing house of the same name, which had flourished and is still in high activity since the year 1768, the commercial prosperity of the concern in London has been both rapid and continuous. In 1850 a transference was effected to the present eligible premises, which are in every point of character and situation precisely adapted to the requirements of a very select high-class business of the kind. They consist of a neat, elegantly appointed salon, with the remainder of the two three-storied houses for warehouse purposes, in which an exhaustive stock of sheet and book music for all instruments and voices is held, carefully classified, comprising standard works, such as Wagner’s Operas, which are the copyright of the firm, and music fully up to the hour of publication, and especially music from the leading Continental publishers of the day. The extent of their publications, especially of pianoforte and string music, is enormous; and the trade controlled is one of considerable volume, and, as already noted, the patronage is a very select one, including Her Majesty the Queen and members of the Royal Family, and many other distinguished personages drawn from the elite of the English and foreign aristocracy and lovers of music in every quarter of the kingdom."

The deceased gentleman who was brought up as a cabinet maker-sprang from a German-Swiss family at Zurich, although he lived most of his youth in the more French portion of Switzerland, at Geneva. Leaving that town about 1840, he spent several years in travel, visiting Russia (where he held an appointment for some time), Egypt, the Holy Land, &c., in company with a fellow traveller, with whom he retained lifelong friendship. His journeys brought him to London, where he obtained work at Erard's. At that establishment he became acquainted with a couple of journeymen named Knoll and Ecuyer, and after a while they linked their fortunes in business under the style of "Knoll, Ecuyer & Schuppisser." That partnership, however, was dissolved, and the deceased started by himself, about the year of the great exhibition, first over Foulden's fret cutting factory in the Euston Road, then at Titchfield Street, then at High Street (N.W.), and ultimately at Buck Street, where the firm now have their factory. We understand that the business will still continue, under the charge of two sons, Charles Erard and Francis Louis, who were associated with him in business. The deceased gentleman was within a year of the allotted three score and ten." Musical Opinion and Music Trade Review, 01/04/1890, p. 321 - See ERARD and KNOLL

BIO

"Smart, Sir George-Thomas, chef d'orchestre, organiste et compositeur anglais distingué, né à Londres le 10 mai 1776, m. dans la même ville le 23 fevr. 1867 ; fondateur et, pendant longtemps, directeur (1813-1844) de la « Societe philharmonique, organiste et compositeur de la Chapelle vocale de la Cour, musicien de haut mérite qui, le premier, fit connaître en Angleterre les oeuvres de Beethoven et de Schumann. Il dirigea, de 1813 à 1825, les auditions musicales du carème, ainsi que, de 1823 à 1842, un grand nombre de festivals de musique, dans lesquels chantèrent la Sontag, J. Lind et la Malibran (celle-ci dans le festival de Manchester [1837], qui lui fut fatal). S. dirigea la musique des fêtes du couronnement de Guillaume IV (1820) et de la reine Victoria (1837). Il a publié les madrigaux de Orl. Gibbons et le Te Deum de Dettingen, de Händel, ainsi que plusieurs anthems, glees et canons de sa composition. Son frère, Henry, né en 1778, m. à Dublin le 23 nov. 1823, le père du musicien suivant, fut un excellent violoniste, puis, en dernier lieu, facteur de pianos, à Londres."

OBITUARY

"Mr. Henry Smart. Nov. 27. Of a typhus fever at Dublin (whither be had gone to superintend the debut of his pupil, Miss Coward,) Mr. Henry Smart. Mr. Smart began his musical education under Mr. Cramer, and played in the early part of his life in the Orchestras of the Opera, Haymarket Theatre, and at the Ancient Concert. At the opening of the English Opera House, he was engaged as leader, and continued in that capacity for several years. When the present Drurylane Theatre opened, Mr. Smart was also retained as its leader; and, we believe, it was his peculiar pride to have formed that orchestra entirely of English artists; and in such estimation did they hold his character, that on his retirement from the Theatre in 1821, the Orchestra presented him with a silver cup, as a mark of their gratitude and his merits. Mr. Smart was leader at the Oratorios, at which he had assisted since they were under the conduct uf bis brother, Sir George Smart, which began in 1813. In 1820 Mr. Smart entered into a manufactory for piano-fortes, and, but a very short period since, had obtained a patent for an Important improvement in the touch of these instruments. He was distinguished by great urbanity of manners. In his nature he was kind, generous, and humane. He always evinced an ardent love of his art, and, on all occasions, private reeling gave way to public interests in its exercise." The Gentleman's Magazine, 1824, p. 186

LONDON - "Edwin Smith, of Blackburn, was to exhibit six styles of the Weaner organs, shipped from York, Pa., especially for the purpose. But on Wednesday last he received a cablegram as follows:-"Organs miscarried, ship from regular stock." He is, therefore, unable to show some new styles which he hoped would captivate the dealers. He, however, makes a fair display, and in addition to the Weaner goods, shows two styles of cheaper Englishmade organs and samples of Carl Mand's (Coblenz), Bachmann's and Consohn, Bru & Co.'s pianos. The last named instruments are well finished, have metal standards and brass hammer rails, and sell from 35 to 40 guineas."
