For those of you who don't know about my piano, it was given to me free when a family was moving and did not want to take it with them and so Mark's dad told them he had someone who would love to have it (and I did!). Well, I have had it now for about five years and never had it tuned (eeeeek!). I started taking lessons at one point and was moving right along until we bought The UPS Store and the lessons stopped real fast. So sad, they never started again...until now. I finally have the time to practice so I got the name of this great piano tuner from my teacher and made the appointment. Here he is getting the job done. My piano was made sometime between 1889 and 1920 the tuner estimates. It was neglected in my care but also with previous owners and so it will probably keep braking down like an old car. Not only did he tune it but glued back two keys that had broken. I look forward to learning how to play this beautiful instrument again.
