Brief Bio

In 1996, Sam Haasenritter, RPT, began a two-year apprenticeship with a third generation piano shop and later supplemented it with academic studies in piano technology. He graduated with highest honors in 1999. In 2000, Sam passed the Piano Technicians Guild’s (PTG) demanding examinations to become a Registered Piano Technician (RPT).

Over the next several years, he attended regional and national PTG conventions, completed two week-long training seminars (including one with Yamaha) and secured two phenomenal Steinway-trained mentors. 2005 was particularly noteworthy as Sam spent three intense weeks training in Vienna at the world-renowned Bösendorfer factory. In order to remedy a significant blind spot in the pedagogy curriculum, he created the t³ Piano Institute in 2009. Most recently, in the spring of 2016, he became Georgia’s first WNG Certified Installer of carbon fiber action parts.

Currently, Sam provides Atlanta with quality piano service, satisfies the discriminating tastes of concert artists (which have included Elton John, Andreas Klein and George Winston) and educates the musical community about harnessing the full potential of both the piano and the pianist.
