It's all about the music, dude! Sit down, relax and listen to some tunes.

F2 1st mvmt cadenza 440.3




So, there could be a difference between F1 and F2.

But even if all the tapes were at 445+, why enshrine a technical error?

You have not yet asserted, as some people on Hoffman's forum did, that out of respect for Oistrakh, the Cleveland "Must have" tuned sharp.

I guess that I just bring out the whackjob in some foax, because Steinway's artist division did not retune Richter's piano to 445 for Oistrakh & Richter's 1970 Alice Tully Hall recital. There are lots of Oistrakh recordings close or even below 440.

And don't hold your breath about my eating crow. Effective July 31 I became a Vegan, so it would have to be Crow-fu. Which I am told is actually rather tasty.

No luck on the de-alcoholized CTNdP, though... .

Immer essen,
