sally
known as the
largest music
1 house in
the
world,
but
among musi-
* L
N
cians
and
connoisseurs their
greatest
LICL.85
reputation does not rest on this fact.
*> Fine
musical instruments are not
pieces
of
merchandise,
but
works of
art. Their
value
depends not on cost
of material and
labor, but
on individual
qualities
and characteristics
cunningly wrought into them by
a
master hand, to be
called out
again by
the master
artist. Such
instruments
cannot
be
bought by lot and sold
by
number like ordi-
nary merchandise: they must
be
individually
selected
by experts and just
as
carefully
sold
again-each to per-
fectly meet
the
particular
requirements of
its
particular
new owner.
C Lyon
and
Healy early
and
clearly
recognized
these
facts.
From
the first
their
entire
policy has been to
select
only
those
instruments
whose individual
merit
would rank them at the top
of their
class, and to sell
only on
a
basis
that would
assure
permanent
satisfaction
to
every
customer.
4 Such a policy
necessitates
the constant
exercise of
great
technical
judgment
along
all
musical
lines. To
meet this need Lyon
and
Healy
have
gathered
a
corps
of experts that has made this
name
famous in high
musical
circles the world over.
41
This
policy, and
the
careful,
consistent way
in
which
it is followed out, has led many of
the
leading
musicians
and connoisseurs, both in
this country
and
abroad, to rely
entirely on
this
judgment in
the choice
and
purchase
of some of the world's
greatest musical
masterpieces.
For years it has
also
proved
invaluable
to thousands of
customers
everywhere
in
selecting for them the best
instrument
procurable to
meet
their needs
and means.

4 And what is true of
all
branches of
our
business is
particularly true of our
Old Violin Department. The
violin is
so
inseparably
linked with all that is greatest in
the history
of
music-its
design
and
construction were
brought to such
a
marvelous
point
of
perfection by the
mastermakers of
Cremona and
their
followers in
France
and Germany, who seem to
have
caught the very soul
of music in the very form
of
art-that
it
stands
today
without a peer in
the
hearts of
the
great body
of
music
lovers.
41
The
importance of
a
really fine
old
instrument, not
only'for
the
professional
musician, but for
the
student,
cannot
be
overestimated. Artistic
expression,
light and
shade,
beauty and
tone
color are the very
essence of real
violin
music; yet
the
average
modern
instrument is inca-
pable
of expressing them.
41 In speaking of this subject,
Mr.
Theodore
Thomas, the
late
great
conductor of
the Thomas
Orchestra,
wrote us:
I am convinced that the prime reason for lack qf artistic
e*ression among violinists is the want Qf a good in#trument
in early LUe, one which might have awakened a sense qf tone
quality instead Qf noise. In placing suck ,#ne instruments
within the reach Qfkmerican musicians your undertaking should
meet the appreciation and encouragement which it deserves.
41 Our Catalog de Luxe, illustrating and describ-
ing our choicest violins, ranging in price from one
thousand dollars, upward, will be sent to those con-
sidering the purchase of a masterpiece of this class.

Ludwig
Christian
Bausch, Leipzig, 1830
No. 189.
Bausch was by all odds the most
celebrated of
the
nineteenth
century
makers in
Germany. His work
was
exquisite
in
every
detail.
He was
an artist in
the truest
sense of
the word.
The violin
here listed is one of his
representative
specimens, in a very
high state of
preservation,
with
magnificent wood in
back,
sides
and top. The tone
is
exceedingly
responsive,
and the
instrument is very easy to play on
account of
the
sloping
shoulders. It has

Antonio
Gibertini,
Parma, 1850
No.
2503.
While not
so
widely
known
among
violinists of
this
country, the name
of Gibertini
is recognized by
the
connoisseurs
of
Europe as
that of one of the
best
makers of
the
nineteenth
century. His work is
not
altogether
unlike that
of
Pressenda,
though
the
model
he
employed was
not
so broad
and
robust, but
more
feminine in
character.
This
instrument
is
built of very
choice wood
selected
especially for
its tonal
quality,
the result
being a tone
of
especial
sweetness and
good
power.
The
varnish is a
light ruby
red color.

A

glorious tone. It is
an
ideal
violin for a lady, or
for any
one
requiring
a
small-size

For such
a
person
a
violin of this kind is far
preferable to
a
standard-size
instrument,
because
the efFort
of
playing in
the
upper
position is
much lessened by the size
and
shape of the
shoulders. A
far
greater technique is thus
possible, as the tone is
as
