I find it very interesting first, that they never say = a note is sharp. They dont compare it to anything.</FONT></DIV> <DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I was told once that perfect pitch was = the ability to name a note when several are played without looking. tell you what = triad etc etc....However being  able to determine a notes flatness or = sharpness within 15% would be good....are we talking about randomly slecting = any note on a piano, and make this determination. I would be impressed...but I = have my doubts this is what we are talking about.</FONT></DIV> <DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV> <DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Richard, = Canada</FONT></DIV></BODY></HTML>
