List, Anyone care to share your opinion with Greg? From: greg hollister [mailto:biggiewarehouse@yahoo.com] Sent: Thursday, May 10, 2001 6:02 PM Subject: Sharp organ Q&A I just had an experience with a pipe organ which was recently tuned. The pitch was just above A-443. I double checked this with a spare fork and with the digital piano in the church. All confirmed my initial finding. Really sharp. Of course, the choir director loves to play duets. The piano they use is a 25? year old Kawai 300 grand. My question is this: In a situation like this do we just go ahead and tune the piano that sharp informing the church they will have to tune it again and pay for any string breakage? How sharp is too sharp? The organ is almost new and pitch was not a problem prior to this. How much slack do we cut pipe organ tuners?
