Peter was a great supporter of music and the art. Musician himself, he had an extraordinary knowledge of music. He will fly with the angels of music and continue to support us from wherever he is... "Above the Red Rocks"... thank you, Peter.

It is with profound sadness and a heavy heart that I share with you the news that my dear friend Peter Van Mastrigt, incredible piano tuner and technician of my pianos and Piano on the Rocks' pianos, passed away early today. He was a great support to me musically and I am sure that he will be missed by all the community in Sedona and outside of Sedona.
Piano on the Rocks will dedicate the upcoming festival to him.
