I’m a Certified Piano Technician, graduate of the New York School of Piano Tuning, Service, and Repair, and Associate Member of the Piano Technicians Guild - with over 20 years as a musician informing everything I do.

I grew up fascinated by musical instruments. The idea that wood and steel, shaped with intention, could produce something capable of pitch, tone, timbre, and resonance - it captivated me completely. I needed to understand it from the inside out.

Today, I have the career I always wanted. Since 2019, I’ve been caring for pianos of all styles and ages throughout the Hudson Valley. With particular experience servicing Steinway & Sons and other high-end instruments, I bring the same passion and precision to every piano I touch.

My work has taken me beyond private homes and studios. I’ve had the privilege to prepare pianos for performances and recordings by some of music’s most distinguished artists, including Donald Fagen, Diana Krall, Regina Spektor, Elvis Costello, John Medeski, Patrick Watson, Amanda Palmer, Emily King, and Meshell Ndegeocello - whose Grammy-winning album The Omnichord Real Book features a piano I tuned.

“It was a 10/10 experience with Julian. He was so kind and excellent at his craft. My piano sounded so great afterwards, I could not stop playing it!”

— Emily King, Recording Artist
