1The VIRGIL PRACTICE CLAVIER.
3"The 'Practice Clavier' is an unerring monitor and guide."
5"The 'Clavier' enables one to temporarily banish the stimulating influence of the pianoforte tones without suspending the means of defining the rhythm and verifying the touch.
7"The attention is directed to and concentrated on the accuracy of the mechanical and rhythmic work. In these particulars the 'Practice Clavier' is so 'distressingly truthful'—as a lady pupil of mine significantly expressed it—that a passage, the execution of which, although allowed to pass muster on the pianoforte, would not stand the inexorable test of the 'Clavier' for a single moment."—WILLIAM MASON.
