@PeppyPatti That’s a lot of text for you. I glossed over it but wondered if it related to the Idea of North. My son discovered GG about18 years ago. Got really into him. My nanna spoke of him back in 1970s as worthwhile non European pianist!
@Abner Yes, re auto tune, but another problem is that the orchestras are having titillation competitions by ramping up the herz 467 etc Boston competing with Berlin for the most exciting performance… and the poor singers can’t properly vocalise at those pitches. I am trying to slow the world down and bring the pitch down! I love my 415hz recorder, but nobody listens to me…lol

Middle C is 261.625565 hertz thought 'concert pitch' was 440khz?
I remember bought a guitar after got out of Army in 80s, mum tuned it from the piano lol, it may have been an Ovation which was sort of good cheap. was semi accoustic. guitarist mate said I got a good deal.

Mostly we don’t worry too much about c hz… cos it’s too many decimal places ..lol @TAB the scientific basis of octaves is that the A below is 220, then 110, then 55 hz. It has a lovely mathematical elegance, don’t you think?
mostly we just wanna cruise along with good vibrations… and it doesn’t need a big cc on the motor bike engine either… lol…
A standardised as 440 hz is fairly recent …. last century. We early music buffs like to be a little historically informed. I just love the mellow sound of my 415 Alto recorder. Nerdy enough to want to buy one. Haven’t joined a 415 ensemble yet…
yeah I used to play guitar and the standard was to tune to the piano. Love me a good jazz standard… and a good low hemline…. That was after I sent me leathers to the opshop. Lol
