  According to the Evening Star. October 14, 1923, Page 4, Image 70 chroniclingamerica.loc.gov/lccn/sn83045462/1923-10-14/ed-... "Landovska makes her debut in America November 16 and 17 In Philadelphia and plays with the Philadelphia Symphony Orchestra in New York city on November 20." According to the Bismarck Tribune. December 31, 1923, Image 4 chroniclingamerica.loc.gov/lccn/sn85042243/1923-12-31/ed-... 'Wanda Landowska’s interpretation of the harpsichord, precursor of the piano, has been a sensation, and we have just heard the famous Polish player’s first record of her work. Her instrument has two keyboards, a multiplicity of pedals, and the tone is from strings plucked by quills. Now you can hear Handel’s “Harmonious Blacksmith" and Mozart's “Turkish March" exactly as the composers themselves heard them, generations ago.'
