| TEXT | The American music trade looks up to the house of Messrs. Martens Brothers as the oldest importing and publishing house in that line in the country. The business was founded away back in 1844 by Scharfenberg & Luis and has been carried on vigorously and continuously to date, the present firm having become proprietors in 1874, having been connected with the house, however, many years prior. Their facilities and connections are absolutely unequalled on this side of the Atlantic, and there are no professional or leading amateur musicians who have not had cause for gratification at finding in Messrs. Martens Brothers' immense and completely assorted stock the fugitive compositions they have vainly sought elsewhere. The proprietors are possessed of vast practical experience, and as publishers are noted for the elegance and beauty of all music issued from their house. They arc prepared to set up and promptly issue in the most handsome style, with lithographed frontispiece, all sheet music, while as direct importers they handle all the latest European productions, and many pieces can always be had here that cannot be had elsewhere. The firm are the agents here for the celebrated popular edition of Breitkopf & Härtel, and others equally in demand. Their establishment is directly central in the most fashionable section of Broadway, and is one of the most elegantly fitted up and attractive on the line of this great thoroughfare. Personally popular, the Messrs. Martens Brothers are among New York's most active and energetic business men, noted for their honorable methods and sterling integrity, and merit the highest commendation for the- enterprise and ability they have manifested in developing the music trade of America. |
