(From South Wvla,I)ai'y Xeivs, 9tb January, 1894;) VKKDRT or NINE this title Mestrs. R. J. Heath and Sons- (Jueen-street, Cardiff, pianoforte makers, organ builders, and music ware- housemen, have collected au imposing array of testi- monials and Press opinions relating to the quality of the musical instruments supplied by th<-m. The firm is so v.-oil known in Cardiff, and, indeed, throughout South W'ulesand the West of England, that it ia liardlv necessary here tod well upon its influence and command- ing tuition. This collection of tenimonials serves, huw«?\er, to do something more than to certify to the excellence of the instruments furnished by Messrs. Ileath and Sons. It -ho^vs, in a sense, how steady is the growth among the general public of a deeire for a knowledge of music, and how increasingly numerous, even in the homes of the working classes, are pianos, organs, and harmoniums. The great majority of tho letters in this list relate to pianos, and v. hile many of them have reference to most costly instruments, con- taining all the latest improvements, supplied to the well-to-do, the greater number relate to serviceable instruments )>ui cliaseei for the homes of the wage-earu- ing portion of the community. This growing love for so refining an ait as music is a most favourable sign. FUT though in the Principality music has for genera- tions been the chief recreation of the people, it lias for the most part oven choral music in connection with churches and ehajiels that h.;s occupied attention. Instrumental music is now, however, receiving its fair share of attention, and all those in true sympathy with the art must trust that the movement will go steadily ouward. These testimonials have been recived from every rpiarter of the Principality, v hiJe not a few come from other j-ortious of the United Kingdom, and some from Suitn America, India, and other distant countries. All speak most favourably of Mes.-is. ] 1 eath's bu-iuess methodsa> w ell asof their instruments. li. J. HLATTTAND SONS TNVITE INSPECTION- FULL ILLUSTRATED LIST AND VERDICT POST FREE.
