This is a multi-part message in MIME format. ---------------------- multipart/alternative attachment Its funny now but... Called to tune in our local library for the first = of this seasons concerts, I was asked to meet the pianist to address = some voicing concerns . This is a 70's Steinway M.,teflon, in decent = condition and meeting the libraries needs quite well. We have had a = humid summer here in Mass so I decide to arrive early planning to lower = pitch to 440 and evaluate for voicing and any regulation. The piano was = 70 cents sharp @C40!. Turns out the pianist has been preparing for his = program for 6 weeks and running a floor model humidifier next to the = piano on high since sept. because the action " felt kind of loose and is = much better now" He was actually a nice fellow and although he tried to = defend his actions for a brief time, came around to a new reality soon = after . I had a few days before his program and was able to stabilize = tuning and take care of his other concerns. Any guesses on how far south = this thing goes when the heat comes on? Tom Driscoll. P.S. I'm putting a = note on the humidifier and will make a proposal to the board for a = climate control system. ---------------------- multipart/alternative attachment An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
