Derek Gibson Piano Services

Piano tuning, repairs, appraisals and purchase assistance offered by a professional concert level piano technician with 30 years of experience.

I operate my own piano service business in Saskatoon. I tune, voice, regulate, repair, and appraise pianos. I have received additional training in concert level tuning, voicing, and regulating from Roger Jolly. Mr. Jolly is an internationally known piano technician who recently was Director of Product Development and Vice President of Samick Music Corporation. He has lectured world wide at many Piano Technician conventions and was a recipient of the Piano Technicians Guild's Jack W. Greenfield Award for exceptional contributions to the piano technology industry.

Before my career as a piano technician, I was a band director for six years. I graduated from the University of Saskatchewan with a Bachelor of Music in Music Education and a Bachelor of Arts. I also obtained my Associateship with the Royal Conservatory of Music in Toronto(A.R.C.T.) Life long learning is essential to me and I strive to improve my skills and understanding in my profession. I am a member of the Piano Technician's Guild. I regularly attend conventions held by these organizations, and have also contributed by teaching piano technology.
