If you pass by and hear the insistent note of a string being tuned to perfection, you know Charlies at home. If the place is silent, the chances are that this young man is in Ivoryton, Connecticut, at Pratt, Read and Co., Inc., makers of piano and organ keyboards and actions for eighty percent of the nations piano and organ manufacturers, where he serves as consultant and technical advisor. Or, he may be lecturing classes of young piano technicians, teaching them the skills which have made him one of the greatest piano makers in America. Charles Stein began working on pianos with the W. W. Kimball Co. of Chicago when a boy of 14. He set out to learn everything there was to know about a piano and by 1912 he had learned enough to draw his first scale and build his first upright piano in his spare time. Many times he has been honored for his outstanding contribution to the American piano industry, for in addition to his instrument designing genius, he has conducted classes for piano technicians from all parts of the U. S., spearheading a program of public education in the proper care of the piano. In the early twenties, when Charles Frederick Stein set up his own company, he created one of the finest pianos ever made anywhere in the world and they were much in demand by concert pianists until World War II when he had to close his factory because of government restrictions. When he became associated with Pratt, Read and Company he found keen support for his program to help the young technicians of the industry and he continued to conduct classes for piano tuners and others. Through his nearly 40 years of teaching, beginning with individual instruction to piano tuners who visited his factory from all over America, he has rightfully earned the title, Dean of the American piano industry. |
