(You have given me a good chuckle.) Here is a possible direction: Take a tone generating type device, match it against a corresponding single string on the piano and give this individual an hearing test by lowering and/or raising the pitch of the string against the tone to determine if sharp means the same thing to her as it does to you. Just an idea. Good luck! Keith A. McGavern kam544@ionet.net Registered Piano Technician Oklahoma Chapter 731 Piano Technicians Guild Oklahoma Baptist University Shawnee, Oklahoma, USA
