Hi list, I heard from a audio recording engineer that the pitch of 442hz was adopted due to the use of 12 tone atonal music? Any truth in this? Thanks! Lim Having taught music theory for 30 years, I'd think that I would have run across this one! I haven't...but I'm glad I did, since it gave me a good chuckle. Thanks, Lim! (I think some folks might think earplugs more appropriate for 12-tone or for atonal music, since they are separate categories...not that I'm suggesting that, myself, you understand!) It's amazing how many possible tales there are out there, isn't it? Stan Ryberg Barrington IL jstan40 at sbcglobal.net -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
