About Emil Fries Piano Hospital and Training Center

About the School of Piano Technology for the Blind. The School of Piano Technology for the Blind is specially designed and well equipped for the teaching of piano tuning, servicing, and rebuilding. There are six soundproofed tuning booths, seven repair workrooms, and as many as 50 pianos on hand so that students may gain proficiency through practical application. A maximum of 12 students are in the course at any one time. Our school takes great pride in the high quality of its graduates' tuning skills. Every student must thoroughly master all aspects of tuning, from unisons through temperament to the entire keyboard, along with basic regulating and repair skills. Instruction is one on one, with constant feedback and encouragement. Those with the interest and aptitude will learn to do considerable rebuilding, including restringing an entire piano and other major repair jobs. Senior students may have the opportunity to tune, under close supervision, in the local schools, college and some churches, gaining a great deal of valuable experience.
