    You only have a few days left to submit your class proposals for the 2019 Annual PTG Convention which will be held in Tuscon, Arizona July 10 - 13th, 2019.  Submit them to Home 

     
    I'm looking for the following classes:
    Roberts Rules of Order - helpful for Chapter leaders and for those seeking to join a Board within the PTG
    The Practical use of Historical Temperaments
    Small Business Accounting
    History of Baldwin, Kimball, Wurlitzer (let's hear from those that were there before they are gone and their stories gone with them)
    The Modern Straight Strung Piano (Paulello, Arno, Barenboim - Chris Maene, Erard)
    Squares, Birdcages, Vellum, OH MY!!
    How to Tune and Perform Maintenance on Player Piano.

    As of now there are no plans to bring back the Drop In Shop, but I would like to have various hands-on stations set up in the same room as the Competency Playground for How to measure Hammers for Boring, Boring a hammer, Repairing a Yamaha Hammer Flange String.  How about a piano with messed up dampers and you can get one to work properly.  If you could teach one of these hand-on repairs or can think of others, please email me at douglas@magnumopuspianoworks.com
