Dan Levitan Study Day
On Saturday I enjoyed the Study Day at Steinway in London. These annual events are sponsored by Steinway and the Piano Tuners’ Association. This year’s event was a day’s seminar with Dan Levitan, Author of The Craft Of Piano Tuning. It was arranged by Allen Wright, consultant at Steinway and at Period Piano http://www.periodpiano.com/, and facilitated by David Widdicombe, Steinway’s Technical Services Manager.
The content was very interesting and well-presented, with a nice warm and humorous style. Quite some concentration was required at times to keep up with the theoretical aspects!
Dan Levitan has invented a unique “C-shape” tuning lever, which you can see being demonstrated here http://vimeo.com/37869859
