I try to prioritize the tunings. I look at what is scheduled in the recital halls, and tune for the most important (in my mind!) events. If a piano recital is happening, I try to always tune for it. If it is followed by a vocal recital with piano only as accompanyment, it's "I hope it goes well." Not only do I not have the budget to tune for every recital, I have a very limited time frame in the hall (2 hours each on Monday and Friday.) dave Avery Todd wrote: > List, > > Mike brought this up on pianotech while answering a question about > breaking strings. > > >The concert pianos got complete tunings every two weeks > >completely and many more superficial tunings for concerts. > > I was just wondering.
