there was a thread about this somewhere
i was just thinking people couldnt have PERFECT pitch hearing coz it would just ruin music for them, you have to remeber every note 'tuned perfectly' today is unotisablely slightly out of tune, so sharps and flats can fit it. with out them you cant change key, if you had pitch perfect hearingyou would pick that up and everything would sound out of tune, it was Pythagoras who mathmaticaly created the perfectly in tune notes but it was restricted by being stuck in 1 key, so people slightly detuned the notes to fit in sharps and flats so key changes could be done. so no one is going to hear pitch perfect unless they only ever play music and listen to music that is using the Pythagoras scale.:Smug:
