5 minutes of fame for a piano tuner

Following our AGM on 18 June we’ll be holding the presentation concert of this years’ AYCA winners. Every year one of the big challenges we face, as we know many of you do also, is finding a professional standard piano hire service for an affordable price capable of working with us in a venue that they don’t necessarily know that well. This year that important role is being filled by Markson Pianos who we are also pleased to welcome as corporate members.
