4worldlovers: I am a member of the Piano Technicians Guild and hold a Bachelor of Music degree from Brigham Young University. I am an Associate of the Cal Arts Piano Shop and I tune privately across Los Angeles.

As a lifelong pianist I know the satisfaction of sitting down and playing a well-tuned piano. As a piano technician, I am able to help you enjoy that same satisfaction as you spend time at your instrument.

Tuning your piano involves fine adjustment to the tension of the 230 strings of the instrument. Each piano will vary in how it is tuned based on the size of the instrument and due to the effects of inharmonicity in the physics of string vibrations. A good tuning will set the piano at its most sonorous state possible.

Whether you are a novice or a professional musician, your time at the piano is enhanced by playing an instrument that is in tune. You will create more beauty, and there is more joy in the experience of making music.

Every piano needs regulation work as pianos—like most things in the universe—trend toward entropy over time.

Regulation of a piano puts all parts of the mechanism into optimal position and relation. A finely regulated piano is a pleasure for the pianist to play as there is a predictable, even response across the keyboard. The pianist experiences precise connection and control, and the pianist can now achieve the finest nuance in performance from the softest pianissimos to the most powerful fortissimos, with the fastest repetition possible.

Over time, hammer felt becomes compressed and hardened as string cuts start to form, reducing resiliency and creating a brighter tone.

Voicing the piano softens the felt and evens out the tone across the keyboard, giving the pianist access to the fullest spectrum of tone color possible.

You extend the life of your piano when you keep it in peak working order. And it is of course a lot more fun to play the piano when everything works. Sticking keys and malfunctioning pedals quickly kill the joy of making music. Ignoring a needed repair can create compounding problems for the piano.

Pianos have long lives, and over many years can accumulate dust and debris that can inhibit performance. A thorough cleaning can make the instrument look new again as well as improve the piano’s functioning. Cleaning below the strings can be tricky and is a job best left to a professional to avoid accidentally damaging delicate action parts. Dust and dirt impede the moving parts of the piano, and foreign objects inadvertently dropped into the instrument can also cause damage and annoying buzzes.

“Robert provided an excellent tuning to my baby grand. In these times where we must be super cautious about whom we let inside our homes, I found Robert to be personable, polite, and affable. I highly recommend him for his tuning skills and so that you may feel totally safe while he is in your house.”

“Robert did an amazing job tuning my piano. My piano was in pretty bad shape--it was way out of tune and it had been many many years since anyone had given it any maintenance attention.

Just had Todd over to tune a 1985 Yamaha baby grand (G1) that I grew up on, it was just moved to our house from my parents' a few days ago. The piano hadn't been used or tuned in over 6 years, ever since I ran off to college ... Todd is punctual, extremely thorough, and knowledgable. He asks useful questions and provides a customized plan of action so that all parties are happy (including the piano). Will definitely consult Todd in the future for my piano regulation, tuning and voicing needs.

Sharon came over and tuned my Steinway today. She did a great job. She also voiced the piano and looked everything over. Very reasonable for excellent work.
