Excerpt from an article about Patrick Burnham:
Patrick Burnham trained with Peter Krauss, one of only eight official Steinway piano technicians in the United States, and has worked on three of the most famous pianos in the world: Vladimir Horowitz’s personal concert piano insured, Gershwin’s piano, and Van Cliburn’s personal piano. He has also tuned the Wurlitzer piano in Sun Studios, the very piano used in recordings by Jerry Lee Lewis, Carl Perkins, Johnny Cash, and Elvis Presley.
As a Steinway piano technician, Krauss has tuned, regulated, and voiced concert performance pianos to the standards of the concert and artist department at Steinway and Sons in New York. Patrick worked under Krauss for two years, rebuilding pianos together.
“It’s a master-student relationship that was true of many fields, many years. You can’t get it out of a book. You just have to work with somebody that can do it. “It’s a passing down thing,” Krauss said. “Somebody has to teach you.”
Krauss says that his job is “Pretty much the same” as piano tuning 100 years ago, since pianos haven’t changed much since the 1920s or 1930s. “Steinway is kind of the essential, ultimate piano. It’s the definitive piano. It’s the one to which everything else is compared, and has been since the mid 1850s,” Krauss said.
“I feel real fortunate to have Peter as my mentor,” Patrick said, “because he’s the best. It doesn’t happen very often that you get a Steinway technician to be your teacher. What are your chances? One in a million.”
