Tuning a piano entails precisely adjusting string tension to ensure that each note is as accurately pitched as possible. Each piano presents distinct challenges, making it essential to tailor the tuning process to achieve the desired sound. This delicate mix of science, art and precision ensures your instrument sounds its best.

Ideally an acoustic piano should be tuned every 6-12 months in order to keep their optimum condition and tone. However, if a piano is new or has been moved, you may need to get it tuned more regularly. 

One of the most fascinating aspects of piano tuning is that there is no true pitch or frequency for the majority of the keys on the piano. Aside from A440, which serves as the standard tuning pitch, every other note varies slightly based on the piano’s size, design, condition and age.
