piano tuner
Fixes musical pitch
A piano tuner is a person who adjusts the tension of piano strings to produce correct pitch.
Tuning requires both technical skill and a trained ear, as pianos have over 200 strings that must be brought into proper relationship with each other.
The piano tuner comes twice a year.
