[MusicTlk] Perfect pitch question

[Linda Mentink]

Hi Cory,

No, I'm sure it doesn't.  In fact, a piano tuner friend told me 
that it's actually absolute pitch, not perfect pitch.  One of the 
young ladies in my college theory class had absolute pitch, and I 
have very close relative pitch.  Because of that, our teacher 
said the key we were supposed to write melodies in when she 
played them for our ear training quizzes, but she played them in 
a different key because she wanted to be sure that we were 
listening to the intervals.

Blessings,

Linda

I'm curious: Does blindness have an impact on perfect pitch?

Sincerely,

Cory McMahon

I have perfect pitch, and I have had it since I have been born.  
I am also
totally blind.  The difference though is it has been altered most 
likely in
my brain.  This happened in 2014.  I know nothing else was 
altered or
including voices.  Why do you think this is happening? Would 
there be anyone
you would suggest I go to or resources I should look into to work 
with this
issue? Thank you.
Kathryn
