About me

Music is the language of the connection between musicians, listeners and composers. It connects epochs and cultures. Music is a basic need: energy, movement, tension, relaxation – a flow.

Music is about communication… it isn’t just something that maybe physically sounds good or orally sounds interesting; it’s something far, far deeper than that.
– Evelyn Glennie

I spend two weeks every month at Klangmanufaktur in Hamburg to bring grand pianos to new life, in collaboration with the team. However, the center of my life is Berlin – here, I look after the instruments of private clients, as well as maintaining and preparing pianos for recording sessions at various recording studios.

My work is not just about tuning. Refining the piano’s action and sound is equally important, and should enable the player/performer to forget the instrument. A medium in your hands, like your own voice.
