why do you think it’s silly? Why do you suppose they might be interested
in concert tuning experience? Certainly it couldn’t hurt to have a proven
track record of being able to tune well enough for pianists in a concert

somebody on the search committee who actually knows something about tuning.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
