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.

The adventure is starting

After a little difficult travel because of the suspicion of airport Israeli security services both of departure and arrival, my plane landed on Tuesday April 1st, 2008 in the evening.

Before going to Nablus, I met Mr Zamir Havkin on Wednesday morning. It was really great! Zamir is a piano tuner from Tell-Aviv. He was so nice and hospitable! He showed me his workshop and talked with me a lot about piano and Israeli life. I think it was very good and really important for me to meet nice and clever Israeli people like him before going to the Westbank...
