Yury’s Piano

Great business. I used it for piano tune up and sale. My friends purchased a piano here and are very happy with it. The owner is very reliable and provides a quality professional service. I very much recommend this place.

Yury has been the primary tuner of my 1987 Steinway M for over 14 years.
He is extremely professional and always does a fantastic job.
I have to add that Yury is the most meticulous piano tuner I have ever encountered. He is also unbelievably reliable.
I would highly recommend him! Thank you Yury!

I have known Yury for years as a valued member of the Newton-​Watertown community. He had been tuning my old piano for a long time and when it came time to graduate to a better instrument, I visited his store in Newton. I had a low price range in mind but wanted a decent, real instrument that would hold its tune well in an apartment that’s not heat– or humidity-​controlled. Other piano shops laughed at my price range and said I’d never find a decent upright piano for less than $ 5,000. They were completely wrong.
Yury is an expert in his craft and I completely trust his advice when it comes to pianos. He tunes them with an old-​European-​style precision and care that, quite frankly, is very difficult to find from other piano professionals. I purchased a refurbished Yamaha U3 from his shop for a wonderful price and couldn’t be happier — true to his word, the piano was perfectly in tune when it arrived and hadn’t required any tuning for over two months. When it does, I will be sure to call him — his prices are very reasonable and his work and years of experience, both in Europe and the United States, speaks for itself. I most certainly can vouch that his work is excellent and that the care and depth he brought to the job really made my old instrument a joy to play (and my new one even better!).
This shop is a real gem because it’s truly a one-​man show and a real local business that does it all (there aren’t many of those anymore!): he tunes, restores, repairs and sells pianos of all types and sizes. There are used Baldwins, perfect for a beginner student or kid starting out; there are also grand Steinways for the local jazz players and professional performers. In fact, a good friend of mine, a world-​class jazz pianist, purchases his instruments at Yury’s vs. any of the local chain stores. You will be supporting a LOCAL shop and will know that if you make a purchase, it will be an instrument that had been individually cared for. It will also be a fair price without the huge markup seen at the other places.
Buying an instrument, especially a piano, is always intimidating, but I highly recommend this little shop and place complete trust in Yury’s services.
