Another 2 cents on pitch

[David Renaud]

What was Steinways pitch in 1901?

 I ask as I have a 1901 A2. The tonal difference
between a little flat and A440 is very significant
in the top end. I'm wondering if these things really
were indended to be higher pitched, insomuch as they
were built, judged at a higher pitch(?), and 
designed, manufactured with this end product in mind.
