Rob; I have a Hungarian concert pianist customer who recently returned to her homeland to do a concert. She told me that it took two people to tune the piano. The pianotuner came to tune the piano and he had his son with him. Apparently one of them tuned the bass while the other tuned the treble. I didn't ask her how the temperment was tuned but I did ask her how the piano sounded. By the way this is a riddle. How do you think the piano sounded after the duet? Please send your answers to the list. As I see it, because the piano is a valuable instrument, a more practical approach would be to put the piano either in storage or in a good home until the owners get back and rent one over there for the duration. I think we have all heard some horror stories about pianos that have crossed the ocean. Regards, Ray
