The Musical 1888.

The musical NEW YEAR is here, and we greet it with the "sound of Cornet" (or any other musical instrument, for all of which Oliver Ditson & Co. provide the very best Instruction Books).

With the New Year, many new pupils will commence to learn the Piano; to them and their teachers we commend

RICHARDSON'S NEW METHOD FOR THE PIANOFORTE,
