Thoroughly in the "what the song needs" camp. Happily though, every song needs a complex line.

My bad. I meant reeds. Me mixing up my languages, that was.

Dutch classical pianist Daniël Wayenberg, after cöcking up during a relatively light-hearted Sunday afternoon concert, went down on his knees and crawled under the grand piano to pick up the missed notes, to then throw those notes back into the piano and play the piece from the start again - - playing well, this time. The audience lurved it.

IMS, technically, they can have different reeds with them so they can tune to a piano or an organ or somesuch, but indeed: When doing a gig with an orchestra (me on the organ), the oboe player was well grumpy initially, and explained what a hard time she had with this. Me, I don't really know what the problem is, but at a guess: they're not bringing 60 reeds to cater for a whole range of to-be-expected tuning standards. Edit: had used the word "fleece" for "reed".

Haven't watched the vid, but if the C=512, then the A can well be 432, depending on the system. The nonsense is not in the arithmetics, but in the taking random frequencies as being somehow "better".

A kind BCer has again offered to match your donations so we could get to £8,500. Donate, peeps!

UPDATE: We found a little cavity! Yup, it's just big enough for your pecunial denaros!

One point of a four might be that (if true) one never gets "that" low E timbre from a five. Just throwing this in: I have no idea myself, but this was said by a producer in a well-known studio. Me, I'd imagine that a wider neck's stiffness would indeed change the timbre, but you guys must know a lot more about this than I do.
