Rob Kiddell wrote, >I've rebuilt several Mason & Risch pianos, and the safest way to >find the date of manufacture is the stamp on the action. Heintzman & Company was widely recognised as the top grand piano maker in the country, but some of the Mason & Risch grand pianos made in the first half of the Twentieth Century were fine musical instruments and are good candidates for rebuilding. There were many, many Canadian piano makers through the years, but out of all of them, only Heintzman, Nordheimer and Mason & Risch made really good quality grand pianos. The early Mason & Risch company also made good quality grand pianos. The only other uprights that I have ever seen with full agraffes are Bechstein (made in Germany) and some of the Heintzmans made in the last few years of production. This is a feature that is normally only found in grand pianos and they are usually only found in the mid section of the piano. Many of their uprights had full agraffes right up to the last note in the treble section. The pianos of this era featured fine cabinetry.

The upright pianos that Mason & Risch produced from the turn of the century into the 1920’s stand as a fine examples of the best of the piano makers art. Their motto 'Great Is The Privilege Of Achievement' reflected the craftsmanship of the company. They grew to become a giant of the Canadian piano industry producing more pianos than any other company. They were among the earliest piano makers in Canada.
