Jonathan Valentine
Piano Technician
New Orleans
An in-tune piano can make the difference between someone learning and not learning the instrument. Let me help you love to play!
I’m a concert piano technician with over 10 years of experience who has worked for Steinway, Yamaha, Kawai, the Houston Symphony and Jazz Fest.
New Orleans is my favorite city and I have finally just moved back permanently. I’m offering a promotion as I’m getting started back up here where if you know someone who needs a piano tuning as well, you get $50 off your tuning. Discounts for musicians and teachers also.
I can tune, voice, repair and regulate any issue your piano has and can bring it to its full potential.
My goal is to amaze you with how good your instrument can feel and sound and help you want to play.
Services
Piano Tuning and Voicing
$150
During a service call, from 1-2 hours I will tune your piano and address any of the more pressing issues or requests you have during that time which can include voicing, regulation, and general repairs. $50 discount for scheduling a friend too
Regulation and Repairs
Regulation for the touch of the piano - Light regulation can often be done on a regular service call. But for pianos ready for more extensive work on adjusting the feel and dynamic range, I can spend hours tailoring it to your needs. This can really transform a piano into something amazing quite often. I can also devote time to pianos for more lengthy repairs as well, depending on its needs.
Piano Cleaning
Pianos get dusty and I’d be happy to do a little light vacuuming or light key cleaning on a regular service call if you alert me before hand. For more extensive cleaning under the strings and inside the action will be an extra charge depending on the extent of cleaning needed. Just alert me before hand and I’ll be happy to come prepared to help out.
