Lyle Batey 58, is a family man and a life long admirer of the piano. Studying classical repertoire as a youth he later served as a professional pianist in a military band system where he received additional studies. He also has extensively served as church pianist in several congregations. Having long been interested in the finer aspects of high quality piano sound he eventually began study of the piano technician field. Receiving input from top level technicians and by critical refinements and painstaking work he attained the higher levels of skill. In recent years he has tuned for international soloists, symphonies, and performances of all kinds, in addition to working with piano dealers, churches, schools and piano owners. He finds endless challenge in piano technician work and the reward of a beautiful sounding piano makes it all worth it.
