Hello Richard, I will be applying for the position. I have all the requirements asked for except the forte-piano. Is there a way either than the size of the tuning hammer I don't have that needs to be displayed to the faculty? I have tuned harpsichords both basic and multi-level keyboards, but they are far and few between. Before I submit, please advise me how to word this and how many, how often, etc, this is needed for the university. I would also like to know what courses you teach in piano design. I can do this too, but would like to know how technical these courses are. Thank you for letting me know of this position and I will be applying shortly. \ Sincerely, \ Paul T.
