Summary Wind instrument repairmen During the French intervention, a French soldier of the Napoleonic military band was wounded and left stranded in Huejotzingo, Puebla. He took a member of the Olarte family as his apprentice and opened a small workshop to repair woodwind and brass instruments, which has continued to serve musicians for over two hundred years. An old-school master of the almost microscopic art of repairing wind instruments, Carlos Olarte has taught three generations of descendants who today practice the trade. "Work, work, and work.I was born to work, and then - to sleep," Carlos Olarte remarked reflecting on his ninety-three years, after which he remains lucid, committed, disciplined, and professional.
