Indeed we have had a Dutch émigré here who has written several panegyrics on the many merits of A=432Hz.
I guess I don't have to ask if you were referring to me?
First, don't worry, I'm not going to start this whole debate all over again, It's not worth my time do converse with people that are not interested in the topic anyway.
Secondly, does it matter where I'm from and where I live now? What are you trying to insinuate with that particular bit of information? I don't see the relevance to this topic or anyone's questions about it? It seems you're "playing on the man" again, instead of the ball. Why? I don't know what your problem is Milandro ... apparently you have created some bizarre picture of me in your mind and seem to be unable or perhaps unwilling to adjust it.
It's also obvious to me that you have not taken the time - not in the past nor recently - to really read what I have written on my blog about this subject. The choice of the word "panegyrics" would otherwise be badly chosen the least. And what "many merits" are you talking about? In the old topic about this subject I have mostly tried to explain about and clear-up some of the many misconceptions, misunderstandings and myths concerning this topic.
If you would have/had actually taken your time to honestly check what I have been writing and say for a long time, then you would have known I have always been critical about this subject, I debunked various myths and fairy tales concerning this subject and have placed a lot of info in a proper perspective.
It is fact that many of the stories you read online about this subject is a pile of crap, something that has always bothered me too, but that I am not responsible for. From ridiculous myths as the Goebbels 440Hz pitch (I wrote a short article about that as well) to various misunderstandings and misinterpretations of both historical, music theoretical and sound-related nature ...
I'm probably not that far off to say you haven't even read most of it either.
Yes, there is a lot of BS about this subject floating around on the internet, but where there's smoke there's fire. I Don't throw the baby out with the bathwater, unlike you.
Now, I still find lower pitches more pleasing for the ears, no matter if that's 435Hz (the "Diapason Normal" that use to be the official French pitch in the past - there were even saxophones build for it) or 432Hz, or even lower: 430.5Hz (C4=256Hz - the "Scientific Pitch"). About all of that I have written as well.
This all does not mean I say or have ever said that 432Hz was "better" or more "natural" or what ever. Nor did I ever said people had to throw their saxophones in the trash and replace or something. Nor did I say people should perform in 432 and had to stop playing in 440Hz.
Just like the rest of the sax players on this forum I perform in 440Hz, that's what my horns were build for. And I have no intention to trash my horns, they are like family. Would I mind adding another horn to the family, perhaps in a different pitch, like 435 or 432? No, I would not mind.
Anyway ... writing you is rather useless I fear, I probably have wasted my time with that. I would prefer though that you do not make insinuations concerning my person, or for that matter ever mention me or hint in my direction. Thank you, very much appreciated.
For people that are really interested in this matter and are not as narrow/close-minded as some here on this forum, do check my blog, there are a lot of articles on it concerning this topic, weeding out fact from fiction and placing things in a larger perspective. And feel free to send me a message with questions if you have.
