If you are the type of player that likes to tinker with stuff, I might now have a job for you.
In this job you'd be learning to tune bars, quality control instruments and work on the overall production of instruments.
PLEASE don't contact me about this unless you are VERY serious about this opportunity.
They are looking for a recent college grad. U.S. position.
Last May I had to do a presentation for my job, so instead of a boring lecture I decided to have a recital and talk about my work in between pieces. It was a great success!
I finally uploaded the videos onto my computer, so I'll attach some of them here. Enjoy!
Some info:

I am proud to present here one of the best solos I ever played on the actual TOTM "Alone Together". It was a live concert which has been - thank goodness - accidentally recorded by the sound engineer. In the meantime I listened to it again and again but I have to confess I still like it!
So have fun with it!
