In November the University of Tennessee at Martin is hosting Andreas Klein. The Piano Professor at UTM is having a Saturday symposium for Piano Teachers where Klein will give a master class. She is also arranging for other presenters: a former Artist in Residence at UTM, Dr. Allison Nelson/Loebekka on "How to Practice" and someone else present a session on "Massage of the Pianist." She also asked me to present the following: Will you give a presentation on piano repairs and maintenance for the piano teacher? There are many things most of us don't know but should know. How often does a key get stuck because a child dropped a penny down between the keys? How often does a pedal not work because something simple came loose? We need to be reminded of the importance of regular tuning. Tell us how to determine if a piano needs refurbishing or rebuilding. And on and on. . . Any ideas from the illustrious members of the List! Joy! Elwood Doss, Jr. Martin, TN
