**Sonata Upright Piano Available for Rehoming – Belleville, Ontario**

Book Your Piano Tuning Today

Dear Music Lovers,

Summer brings thoughts of lazy days by the lake, leisurely walks in the park, and ice cream on warm evenings. Somehow, our busy lives seem to slow down as we try to squeeze in all the fun the season has to offer.

Then September arrives, and suddenly it's back-to-school routines, extracurricular activities, and calendars filling up faster than we'd like.

Why not get ahead of the fall rush?

My fall schedule still has several openings, making this the perfect time to book your piano tuning. Tuning appointments start at $200, and you'll have the best selection of appointment times while my calendar is still flexible.

If it's been more than a year since your piano was last tuned, now is a great time to have it serviced. Leaving a piano untuned for too long doesn't improve its sound and often means more work is needed to bring it back to proper pitch, keeping it sounding its best.

If you know a friend, neighbour, music teacher, or family member who has a piano that's due for a tuning, I'd be so grateful if you passed along my name. Referrals from wonderful clients like you are what help my small business grow.

Beat the September rush and reserve your appointment today!

Simply call/text 613-438-3567, or email me at [email protected] to book a time that works for you. As a small local business, I truly appreciate every tuning appointment and every referral.

Thank you for supporting my work and helping me continue to do what I love.

Warmly,

Amy Porter – Piano Technician

P.S. When I'm not tuning pianos, you'll often find me in my garden. I've included a photo of the flower bed in front of my house. Watching my plants grow brings me so much joy. I hope you're finding time to enjoy the beauty of the season too!
