 Sounding beautiful., 28-02-2025 04:52PM

By: Ron - Ruislip

Robin continues to perform a wonderful service on our U3 on a regular basis. Not only is he professional but very passionate about music and a lovely individual - I certainly enjoy our conversations on live music and then, hearing my children having fun on the tuned up piano. Highly recommend Robin.

I had my piano tuned for the first time by Robin Foster and would highly recommend his services. I don’t think my piano has actually been tuned so well previously. I’m a pianist and teacher and have had difficulty finding a tuner so I’m extremely pleased to have found him!

Robin did such a great job tuning the piano at home, (which hadn't really been tuned since we bought it about a decade ago) - he spent a lot of time doing his job and managed to make the piano sound brand new! A really friendly person too and his service definitely worth the price we paid! Would definitely recommend to anyone!

Robin patiently tuned my piano which hadn't been done for over four years because of Covid.
It therefore took a little longer.
Very pleased with the service Robin provides and will now endeavour to make this a regular, annual visit.

Robin gave an excellent tuning of my Ibach grand piano last week. The piano sounded fresh and alive. He also mended a note that was not sounding. I was very pleased with the work.

Robin has been tuning our pianos for nearly 27 years. He’s always on time, and does a great job. We have a Yamaha baby grand and it’s always singing age he’s been.

Did You Know Piano Facts

1730
The firm of Kirkman piano makers was founded in 1730, according to the Pierce Piano Atlas. However, Kirkman inherited the business from Tabel's wife, whom he married one month after Tabel's death. Tabel was a harpsichord maker who trained with Ruckers. He came to London in 1680 and set up making harpsichords. Abraham Kirkman, who was born in 1710 inBischweiler near Strasbourg, came to work for Tabel. In 1742 hemoved to Great Pulteney Street. These are some later dates and locations for him:
(1817) (Grand Pianoforte Maker to Her Majesty and H.R.H. The PrinceRegent)
(1818-1832) (Grand Pianoforte Maker to His Majesty) 19 Broad Street,Golden Square
(1822-1896) Kirkman, Joseph (Junior) 67 Frith Street, Soho
(1831) 3 Soho Square
(1846) 9 Dean Street
(1848) DuLour's Place, Golden Square
(1864) 21 Broad Street, Golden Square
(1894) 12A George Street, Hanover Square
They had associates with Collard who were based at 50 Bond Street,London, the same as Chappell. There is a fine example of a Kirkmanharpsichord at the Colt Clavier private collection. In 1896Georgiana Kirkman sold the business to Collard's at cost.
