Due to the Passover holiday, the general meeting for this month will be held on the THIRD Tuesday of the month, April 18, 2017 starting at 7 p.m. at Frank and Camille's showroom:
482 Walt Whitman Road (Route 110)
Melville, New York 11747
(631) 385-0606
Please note: Frank and Camille's closes at 8 p.m. The meeting must begin promptly.
This month's technical again will be another in the ongoing series from one of our chapter’s own highly qualified technicians. Lee Dobrins will present a two-part class for the April and May meetings, entitled "Tone Regulating the Piano" or simply "Voicing". Voicing consists mainly of using "juice" and some needles. High end voicing, such as in a concert venue, is more than that. Time permitting, Lee will try to cover both of these subjects, as well as various versions of voicing done by some piano makers and technicians.
The Executive Committee can meet for dinner before the meeting at a local restaurant if there is interest. Contact Michael Slavin at (516) 781-8888, or send an email to slavinpiano@aol.com to make arrangements.
There are no minutes for the March meeting which was canceled due to the winter storm.
