Caption from metadata for 535-1958-1: "As one of the few places musicians can get their brass and woodwind instruments repaired, Sandro has enough work to keep himself and another technician, Ed Goertzen, busy. He says his busiest time is during the summer, when school programs send their instruments in for repairs and maintenance."
Caption from metadata for 535-1958-2: "Sandro carefully eyes the progess he's making on a large dent in a French Horn. The instruments he repairs range from family hand-me-downs, to heavily-used horns from school music programs, to expensive, hand-crafted instruments used by professional musicians."
Caption from metadata for 535-1958-3: "When Sandro Massullo realized he didn't have the chops to play music professionally, a school counsellor suggested he try his hand at repairing instruments. After studying his craft at an American school, and serving an apprenticeship, he worked for a Vancouver music shop for 14 years. He went out on his own last year, opening his storefront shop on Hastings St., in North Burnaby."
Caption from metadata for 535-1958-4: ""Sometimes you have to make it worse, before you can make it better," says Sandro, as he carefully taps out a large dent in a school's French Horn."
Caption from metadata for 535-1958-6: "Sandro takes a trumpet for a test blow in his North Burnaby storefront."
Caption from metadata for 535-1958-7: "The repair of brass instruments often requires special, custom-made tools that will wind through the pipes and valves. Sandro sets up just such a tool, as he prepares to work on a damaged French Horn."
