Short- ly afterwards one of its instruments was sent abroad and was played by the great master, Franz Liszt. The impression made upon Liszt was so great that he urged the come pany to make a grand piano. With this agemen?, M & Risch produced its first grand piano and sent it overseas. So enthusiastic was Liszt that he had the fam- ous portrait painter, Joukousky, paint a life-size picture of himself and presented it 'o this Canadian firm. Liszt's declaration that the Mason & Risch was "excellent, magnificent, unequaled', proved a wonderful inspiration, Year after year, the aim of the company was to produce the finest piano made in the world. Recognition came not only from eminent Canadian artists but from abroad. In 1886 a Mason & Risch was selected for Buckingham Palace, The Mason & Risch represented Canadian piano manufacture at the Wembley Exhibition and later won awards at the great exhibition in New Zealand, Two Mason & Risch pianos were also selected for His Holiness, Pope Pius XI.
