I  have always wondered what happens if the pianist plays middle C and the
violinist plays the E tenth above, and holding that, the pianist then plays
that E.  The piano tenth beats ten beats per second sharp of pure. The
piano can't adjust, so the violinist must.  I have always wanted to ask if
they hear this and how or if they adjust. Perhaps through vibrato?
