Tremaine was a businessgenius who brought about the commercial exploitation of the pianoplayer on a big scale. Tremaine's father had built a successfulsmall business making and cranked table-top-sized mechanical organs,a very popular item in homes in the late 1800's. He founded the'Aeolian Organ and Music Company' around 1888; the firm achievedconsiderable success with larger instruments and organs. His sontook over in 1899 and immediately set about to apply his ownbusiness acumen to the company's affairs. With the newly perfected 'Pianola,'he launched an aggressive advertising campaign which was entirelynew to the stodgy piano business.

With four page coloradvertisements (almost unheard of in that day) published in thepopular magazines, he literally stunned the piano industry with themessage that here, indeed, was the answer to everyone's prayer formusic in the home! Tremaine and Pianola built an enormous businessempire over the next thirty years.

It wasn't long after the turn ofthe century that it was deemed desirable to 'miniaturize' the clumsyPianola and other similar, instruments so that they could be builtdirectly inside the pianos. Within a few short years, the pushup'players disappeared from the scene. A B ChaseGablerMusetteAeolianHaines & Co.NormandieArmstrongHaines Bros.PeaseBent, George P.W.P.
