As you know, a piano needs frequent adjustments to work well. There are many pianos in Palestine but there is not anybody qualified to fix it except one man from Jerusalem who is now old and tired of the hassles of travelling here. Thus, Palestinians are depending from voluntary piano tuners' intermittent stays.
Organized with the associations “Music Fund” from Belgium and "Nablus the Culture" from Palestine, the idea is to train two persons during a year. The workshop will be established in Nablus in the north of the Westbank.

Workshop pictures

Some pictures... (most of these by my friend Stefan)

Upright piano action


Fruits from the workshop garden




Learning is very hard. Students are sometimes near the end of the line...



There is a lot of stray dogs in Nablus. Last day, I found one of those in the workshop



I must introduce “Khallas” (say “Rrallas”), the workshop garden turtoise!
(Khallas means “Enough!”. Palestinian people use it frequently...)

Khallas at home


Khallas just waked up
