So great! And the audience knows exactly who she's describing. It reminded me of one of those whispered English legends: great great auntie so-and-so, married for 100 years, was examined after her death (for reasons) and found to be a virgin

But I've only very vaguely heard about 432. I would worry that it would just sound flat to our ears. Then again some orchestras use 442, 443 or 444 and it sounds great. Will take a listen

Thank you Billy for forcing me to come out with guns blazing onto BlueSky. I know about pitch being lower in the C17th-18th, and the modern invention of "baroque pitch" to imitate this and make it easier to play period instruments (settling on 415 Hz, conveniently a semitone lower than 440)

Creativity can't die. But metrics, fear of risk and poor discovery prevent the novel from seeing the light. This isn’t an issue of creativity, but an issue of permitting talent to graduate beyond the niche and accepting news mediums of creativity.
