Thanks Alan. I was wondering about how many instruments they had, and what kind of maintainance/renewal budget and program they have. I hear one of their Profs will be visiting our school this spring as well. Anyways... just comparing notes with a friend who is going to take her masters there. Ottawa is not far from Buffalo NY... where I spent my first 6 years of school. Doesnt strike me as the worst climate for pianos if I remember.... a bit on the dry side in the winter for sure but not so clammy in the summer either. Sound about right ?

The CAUT site lists Donald Cote and Scott Reeves (both RPTs) as the piano techs at U of Ottawa, however Anton Kuerti evidently just joined their faculty as a visiting professor of piano _______ so there'll be an extra person with tuning/voicing tools running around the department. Whether that will decrease or increase the work-load is anyone's guess. :) I hope Don or Scott will chime in to let us know how things are going there. Regards, Alan B.
