Introduction
Hello, my name is Eric Harmsen. I have been in the piano technology industry for 26 years now. I am passionate about the piano, and making pianos sound and play their best. I have experience in the piano technology industry and the music industry. My music is available to listen to on Spotify, Apple Music, CD Baby, YouTube, etc. My education and credentials are truly unique. I earned my Diploma in Advanced Piano Technology from North Bennet Street School in Boston, MA. This is one of the oldest schools in the United States, and the last Piano Technology School in existence. I studied piano tuning, rebuilding, regulation, etc. full-time for 2 years. While a student I was employed at the Mason and Hamlin Piano Factory in Haverhill, MA. I also earned my Bachelor of Arts Degree in Music Composition from the University of Utah, and my Master of Music Degree in Film Scoring from Berklee College of Music, Boston, MA. My experience and credentials are truly unique, and will provide you with only the highest quality of work and service. Please visit the accompanying website. On ii you can utilize the word of the day discount, offering a $10 discount off of a regular piano tuning fee. “Eric I finally got a chance to really play my piano with its new conditioning. I'm getting all kinds of clarity and color from it that I didn't get before. I really appreciate it. You're great.” I have the musical and technical background needed to make your piano sound its absolute best. I have the experience and credentials to rival any other technician in the area. I have tuned pianos for Marc Cohn, Bobby Vinton, Peter Breinholt, Andrea Ponochevny, Peter Mayamoto, and others, and would be especially honored to tune your piano as well.

Eric was great! My piano hadn’t been well-tuned in a few years and Eric used his knowledge and expertise to get my baby grand back in to GREAT shape! He spent the time needed to get things right, shared awesome “helps” for maintaining good piano care & sound, and was priced so fairly! Eric is very friendly and kept in contact with me right from the appt. set-up. I would highly recommend his services and will definitely hire him again. 🎹

Details: Baby grand • Last piano tuning more than 2 years ago • Piano played at least once a week • More than 10 years old

Super great guy, very personable and kind with my kids who liked to watch him. Very knowledgeable and showed me how things are supposed to work. Fixed a sticky key and tuned the piano well. Fun to hear him play some tunes!

Eric arrived exactly as scheduled, spent a great deal of time on my poor, neglected older piano, cleaned it up, tuned it beautifully and then actually asked if I had a request for a song. He played my requested ‘Amazing Grace’ remarkably. His price was extremely fair, and I would definitely recommend him to friends & family!

Details: Spinet • Routine tuning • More than 2 years ago • A few times a year • 11 years or more

Eric was very efficient and courteous. He arrived on time and did a very careful and thorough job of tuning my parents' baby grand piano. He also pointed out things that could be done to improve the condition of the piano further, while refraining from a sales pitch. I would definitely hire Eric again.

Eric was very prompt. My piano had not been tuned for many years. Eric did an excellent job, explained everything, was very personable, cost was very reasonable, and my piano sounds great. Thanks Eric!
