Piano music - my favourite instrument of music ~
my favourite musical tones and melodies ~
from humble tunes to grand sweeping sonatas.
The lilting melody she played just felt good ~
good to hear in my home.
‘She’ was the piano tuner ~ Stacey Benn.
After an hour of ‘tink-tink’, deep ‘tonk-tonk’
Up and down the old ivory keys,
testing each one for tone and pitch ~
She played a short lilting melody to test her work.
There are piano tuner schools ~ her's was a year long training.
A relatively new career, Stacey Benn, has been tuning pianos for three years.
Now, I may just go find a piano teacher ~ maybe ~ in the meantime I’ll play Fuer Elise every now and then.
“The piano ain’t got no wrong notes.”
~ Thelonius Monk
