{'quote': 'Alexander was the best piano technician we’ve had in a long time. The piano sounds so much better since his work on it - the pitch is back to normal, and the whole instrument was serviced really well, including multiple pedals being restored to health! He was also punctual, friendly, and charged a very reasonable rate, especially given the scale of the service. Cannot recommend enough!', 'author': 'Esther Hope'}
