I remember a theatre piece here in San Francisco where we tuned=
 one piano 1/4 step flat to the other piano/musicians.   When=
 evil came on stage that piano would play and it was very=
 strange...

Hello Terry Farrell and Listers
A=3D430 is the ruling pitch for Mozart at Glyndebourne. The=
 orchestra is the OAE who use early period instruments in the=
 Pit. They also can play at A=3D415 - given their other=
 instruments. The LPO are at A=3D440.
Ever listen to a radio station playing an orchestra at A=3D430 and=
 then the radio switches (back-to-back) to a piece at A=3D440? I=
 have - and it's horrid.
Regards
Michael G.(UK)
