Registered piano technician Mark Cramer installs and settles new strings on a 1959 Baldwin concert grand piano at St. Matthew's Cathedral in Brandon on Friday Feb. 16, 2007. Cramer has been working on the piano for the past nine years, first owned by Brandon University and now St. Matthew’s. To prepare it for its new home, Cramer did more painstaking repairs to produce the desired resonance and warmth from the piano, including removing and re-installing the sound board, hand-building the hammers, removing and reinstalling the strings, and working with a welder to harden the metal plates that keep the strings in place.. "It's an exciting thing for the church", exclaimed Cramer who has been working seven day weeks to ready the piano in time.
