Three sounds about right for 165 pianos. (Is that the right number?) Or was 165 the number of just the new pianos? We have 110 instruments and only me. It's a real big job. How many Bostons and Essexs' did you also get? I saw some Boston upright boxes being unloaded in the CBS show. I wish you could have had more air-time to tell everyone how much work it is to "break-in" that many new pianos....Oh well, at least you got your 15 seconds of fame :>) Best of luck!

Part of our “All Steinway” deal was to get a third full-time position but then the economic crisis hit and a hiring “chill” was put into effect. We hope to create this position when the economy thaws.

Great PR piece for them. Debbie Cyr Registered Piano Technician 508-202-2862 cell In a message dated 9/19/2009 1:26:32 A.M.

This story appeared in The New York Times and caught the eye of a producer at CBS Sunday Morning and the result is a 10 minute segment that is scheduled to air as part of the broadcast. Over a period of six months, extensive filming was done on the CCM campus, at the Steinway factory, and in the Steinway selection room. They shot hours and hours of footage and the segment will last only about 10 minutes so there's no telling what wasn't left on the cutting-room floor...watch and find out! I have no idea what to expect... Eric -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
