About the service

A musical result, not just a number

Electronic measurements can be useful, but a piano is an acoustic system in which every string influences the others. Aural tuning allows the temperament, octaves and unisons to be balanced for the individual scale and character of the instrument.

If the piano is significantly below or above standard pitch, pitch correction may be required before fine tuning. This will be explained before extra work begins. Brisbane heat and humidity can also affect stability, so the condition and environment of the piano are considered during the visit.
