The Team

   

Kevin Brice (Director) was trained as an apprentice in reconditioning and tuning pianos under the guidance of Henry and Graham Rogers, and Karl Elmendorf in H.G. Rogers' workshop in Highgate.
He has now been in the piano business for 34 years and is a member of the Pianoforte Tuners' Association which exists to promote the highest standards in the profession. For information about the PTA go to www.pianotuner.org.uk

   

Trevor Watts has been helping Kevin for nearly 30 years and specialises in action and keyboard repairs as well as preparing pianos for re-polishing. Makes a nice cup of tea!

   

Karl Elmendorf was Workshop Manager in Henry George Rogers' workshop for nearly 40 years after working as a pianist with a touring ballet troupe!
He is now working with us as a consultant as well as still occasionally and enthusiastically getting his hands dirty!

   

Bob Talbot Bob Talbot is our extremely experienced french-polisher who has been in the piano trade for over 40 years. He learnt his skills with Brasted Bros. in Haringey and even spent some time as a self-employed polisher in Saudi Arabia. There's none better!


   

Jennifer Johnson graduated from the London College of Furniture in 1986 with a B.Tech HND in Stringed keyboard instrument manufacture and design. She's been assisting Kevin with the tuning round ever since, poor thing!

   

Ralph Brice Kevin's son Ralph joined us as an apprentice on a more permanent basis in the Summer 2005 and is learning all aspects of the trade including tuning. He is currently helping out both on the tuning round and in the workshop and showroom. He is now full -time and indispensable!
