“Julian is the best piano tuner we’ve ever had. He’s ultra-responsive, prompt, extremely knowledgeable, and friendly. Our piano sounds incredible. We’re so thrilled to know him, and wouldn’t work with anyone else. Highly recommend!”

“Julian Berman is a delight. He is professional, respectful, dependable, and accomplished. He arrives as scheduled, is a great communicator, is so respectful of our home, and does a magnificent job tuning our piano. Once you work with Julian you won’t want or need to turn anywhere else.”

“We have been using Julian’s services for months now. He came highly recommended and easily lived up to the hype! He is friendly, professional, and extremely flexible with our strange rehearsal and performance schedule at the Fisher Center at Bard. If you need a tuner, go to Julian!”

“Julian Berman came to tune my Steinway piano today and my experience was wonderful. His love and knowledge of the instrument was apparent. He tuned it and gave me insight into what would be needed to bring it back into even better condition. His demeanor pleasant and his work was impeccable. We will be having him back for a follow-up in the next few months!”

“I recently was performing at a public venue. The venue brought in a small grand. Julian sent reminders for the upcoming tuning and regulating [some voicing as well.] As anticipated he was far from being a disappointment. Again his work was superior. I will use him again whether it is my 9 footer at home or a public venue.”

“Hey, Jack here. This is the second time Julian has worked on my piano, and I can't recommend him highly enough. The overall experience is great, he's very professional, thorough, and a nice and likable person. Answered all my questions and some I hadn't thought to ask, and he gets along with my cats! Recommended indeed.”

“Julian is thorough, flexible, and very pleasant to deal with. He is respectful of the space he’s working in and demonstrates a high level of care about the quality of his work and the instruments he works on. He is trustworthy and considerate and I can recommend him as highly as possible. He’s the Allstate of piano tuners—you’re in good hands with him.”

“It is such a blessing to have such a talented and dedicated piano tuner. Julian walked me through his assessment of our instruments and created a plan for long term care and maintenance. He is such a nice guy and is so good at what he does. Our pianos have never sounded better. I love being able to book appointments online, getting an e-mailed invoice and recommendations for future services, and appointment reminders. I could not be happier with my experience with Julian and give him my highest possible recommendation.”

“We feel so fortunate to have crossed paths with Julian and that we decided to have him check out our piano. He has brought life back into our piano. It looks, sounds and feels loved again! We could not be any more pleased with his professionalism and his work. It is very clear that he loves what he does. He treated our older piano with care and grace, like it was his very own. We look forward to many happy years with our piano and look forward to Julian keeping it in the best condition possible. We would highly recommend using him to care for the future of any piano.”

“His love of pianos extends beyond their sound and into how all of it comes together, the amalgam. I learned more about my piano in the two hours he was here than I ever thought possible. He came highly recommended, and his services were worth the wait.”

“My piano sounds absolutely incredible thanks to Julian. And he's sweet, kind, professional, and in general a pleasure to have in my home. He lets the kids watch the tuning - free entertainment! And now after several seasons, the piano needs less work - the piano keeps its tune longer and is behaving like a happy instrument. Worth every penny and an honor to have Julian Berman keeping my piano in perfect condition.”
