I just finished listening to the audio book version of the Piano Tuner, by Danial Mason. (I actually thought it was recommended by someone here at WTF, but a quick search didn't turn anything up, so I may be misremembering).
It's story about a British piano tuner in the 1880s who gets enlisted by the war office to go to Burma to tune an Erhard grand piano. There's a bit of music and a bit about tuning in it, lots of sub-plots and lots of intrigue. I really enjoyed it. Don't read too much about it beforehand, after I finished it, I was reading around and noticed that some review articles (maybe it was one in the Guardian) gave away too many details.
I also highly recommend the audio book, it's fun to hear it in the narrator's voice, and he changes the different characters voices just enough.

I passed along bachophile's recommendation of Mason's book.
