The Piano Tuner’s Story

Eric had been a piano tuner. All his life. He loved the work. He had perfect pitch and he loved hearing piano strings resonating in perfect harmony with each other. He thrilled at gently tweaking a slightly off key string to bring it back to absolute perfection. This unique combination of precise hearing and delicate manual dexterity had led him to become the best known and most highly regarded piano tuner in the whole country. Other piano tuners aspired to be like him. None ever got close.
