I'm about to take off to work for the weekend so away from the computer (anyone around the Northampton area, I'll be showing my work at the Paradise City show). Just wanted to send out a BIG thank you to all that commented on my piece. I'm sure I spe

Student88, Just out of curiosity, was this a new tuner for you? If so, I think you found a gem!

I vote helpful. For an upright piano. In Maine. Very early in my tuning experience, I went to a school to tune a couple of Yamaha P22s. One had a Dampp-Chaser (The electrical cord was intact and plugged in! There was WATER in it! In a SCHOOL!).

I run a whole house HVAC that maintains the RH between 42% and 50% throughout the year. Nevertheless, I have a DC system on my grand that still cycles and helps to maintain the stability of the tuning extremely well. I highly recommend a DC system.

To enter the Cliburn, one is already forced to choose from one of four composers' piano quintets and must play a chamber concerto by Mozart or Beethoven. If one "liked to" play the Poulenc Sextet or the fifth Brandenburg concerto, they'd be

Very eerie and well done. Seen other vids like this where they take photos of portraits of c.19th people and make them talk- but this looks so real! I wonder what Chopin's real voice sounded like.

ALL DONE! The last page of Pachelbel wasn't as hard as I thought it was going to be. It's somewhat fast, but it rolls off the fingers easily for the most part. The hardest part of the last page for me was getting my RH 4th finger to work properly

I am speaking as a pianist, piano owner, and technician. Anyone who thinks a (properly installed) D-C system will damage a piano is, frankly, an idiot, IMO. The vast majority of manufacturers and technicians recommend them. If you get one of these sy

The theoretical values are : less half a tone = -12% iH Seem to agree with the numbers you find. Changing pitch a little strong (444 Hz) show a very small lowering, but audibly the difference in tone quality is evident.
