Thank You, Donn Young!

Many thanks to Donn Young, a master piano tuner, repair technician (retired), and former professional musician (trombone & piano). Donn served the tri-state area tuning and repairing pianos for decades until his retirement. Donn also toured with The Jimmy Dorsey & Glenn Miller Orchestra during his youth.

All of our pianos are donated and are used for instruction, rehearsals, concerts, and during worship. Mr. Young serviced 5 pianos over the course of 2 days. We are grateful to have benefited from his time and expertise.
