About the Author

When Anita Sullivan started a second career as a piano tuner more than 25 years ago, she was immediately puzzled by the piano’s complicated tuning system. Surprised to learn that her new profession was not only technically complex, but in fact required artistic judgments, she set herself to describing the tuning system in a way that would make sense to ordinary listeners, rather than piano technicians alone. This exceptional book is the result. Sullivan now lives in Oregon, where recently she has turned her attention to early pianos, the tuning of historical temperaments, and the music that goes with them.
