Tuning pianos and grand pianos
Piano Rolf offers high-quality tuning for pianos and grand pianos, in accordance with the world standard A 440 Hz. This tuning results in the instrument’s sound being optimal and the most transportable.
In order to keep a piano or grand piano in the best possible condition, a tuning should be performed at least twice a year. Just like a car, a piano or a grand piano needs regular maintenance in order to function satisfactorily and retain its high value over the years.
A well-maintained musical instrument sounds much better and the quality of its sound allows you to enjoy and be inspired more fully.
