Hello everyone,
A few weeks ago I sent out a survey for a possible hands-on piano technician training seminar this summer. I’ve decided to move forward with the idea, and wanted to share some details here.
When: Wednesday - Friday, June 25-27, 2025
Time: 9:30 AM to 5:00 PM each day
Where: Huntsville, Alabama
What is it?
This is a three day seminar designed for beginning piano technicians and those who are just starting out. This is an in-person class with a focus on hands-on application of the material covered. It’s limited to six people to ensure that everyone gets a good amount of one-on-one time with the instructor (me).
Day 1 will cover tuning techniques, particularly those related to unisons and stability. This is an essential skill to learn for anyone who wants to tune pianos, and is the foundation for all other parts of tuning. If time permits, we may also cover aural tuning techniques and temperament sequences.
Day 2 will start the process of revamping an older grand piano. We’ll start the day by shaping hammers and beginning regulation. If time permits, we might even finish the regulation process that day. We’ll also have more time for practicing tuning techniques.
Day 3 will finish the regulation process and show voicing the piano if time permits. We’ll continue practicing tuning techniques and stability.
Each day will end (time permitting) with a bonus class on starting a successful piano service business.
Again, the class is limited to six people, and four of the six slots have already been confirmed. If anyone is interested, please reach out to me soon and I can send you more details. Thanks!
