Austin PTG Chapter Meeting & News

Monday, November 4 at 7:00 PM

Steinway Piano Gallery of Austin
12980 Research Blvd, Austin, TX 78750

Dear Colleagues,

Our next meeting will take place Monday 11/4 at 7:00pm at Steinway Gallery.

I will be giving a center pinning workshop. We will cover standard re-pinning and rebushing procedures, efficient procedures for repinning whole sets of action parts, various treatments for tight bushings, remedies for verdigris actions, bird’s eye repair, and tools to produce precise and consistent results. If I can get through all of this in a reasonable amount of time we will have some hands-on time for attendees to try some of these methods.

Being able to assess and correct this integral component of the piano helps us produce good regulation and voicing results.

I hope you all can join us!

Kind Regards,
Nathan Cook

Austin Chapter President
