Roland Harrigin tuning in the instruments of Pantonic Steel Orchestra
When Steel Talks provides an exclusive interview with master tuner Mr. Roland Harrigin. Mr. Harrigin took a few minutes away from his busy schedule and daunting task of preparing New York's powerhouse Pantonic Steel orchestra's instruments for Panorama.
