Beethoven was not new age. 432 hz was used in the classical period and the romantic period. Only after WWII did A 440 come as standard. Try singing tenor in the Handel's Messiah using A440hz. Handel used 422hz.

Fun fact: if you, at the same time, play your music *and* keep moving away from a person, who prefers A=432Hz, then you, both, are going to be happy! (Doppler shift. Actually, you have to run!)

Incorrect. If a musical instrument has iron vibrating there will be a pitch in both matter and the electormagnetic field. A guitar or tongue drum (if made from iron) will vibrate electrical charges that can be picked up on a trifield meter as magnetic flux. I have not heard of experiments on this but I bet we can perceive plasma vibrations.

I studied early music, so we were always using different pitches. 392, 415, 430, 465, etc Fast forward a few years, I was in a certain major city, and someone in the audience invited me to a lecture given by an “expert” of Pythagorean music. Sounded interesting, so I went. The guy had no idea about Pythagorean musical theory. The whole talk was about A=432, and why 440 is Fascists using music in order to mind control the masses. Also, humming 432hz might bring dead birds back to life. After the talk, I asked the “expert” what he thought of historical pitches being mostly regional, and even within regions, you often find a difference between instruments meant for church and those meant for the theatre. Organs tended to be pitched higher - a tradition that lasted into the early 20th century. For instance, antique American reed organs are often close to A=450. They did serve a very nice lunch though.

Fun bit about the raising of pitch in some places in 'ye olde Europe', was the pipe organ: you're building a new organ for the church, and hey, smaller pipes use less metal, which is cheaper...and also higher pitched. So, a little fudging of the lengths (not too much, otherwise folks will notice and complain) to save some dough, and a little higher pitch standard for the instrument...it's kind of fun to see how 'rich' a town or church was relative to others, based on not just the size of their organ/number of registers and such, but also what they tuned their A to.

Just watched this, and as a professional piano tuner and rebuilder with over 40 years of experience I can tell you that pianos were designed to sound best at , or around A:440. There are very exact settings such as “downbearing” which require a certain tensioning of the strings against the bridge. (which is glued to and presses the soundboard) Lowering the pitch to A:432 does not tension the system to match the design. At proper pitch there is a vibrant resonance, but lower the pitch and most pianos sound dull. I’ll tune to A:432 if the client wants, but it sounds like crap to me. You could design a piano soundboard and scale so it would work at a lower pitch, but it would take a skilled designer.

I grew up playing piano, playing violin and singing in A=432 Hz world, because in Russia at the time (1960s) tuning forks were still made according to the old Verdi's system. Now, everything played and recorded within the A=440 Hz tuning system sounds too sharp, too "bright" to me, sometimes confuses me when I try to define tonality (especially when an incorrect CD recording makes frequencies even higher), and really, practically, causes tension and even some headache. There is a big difference for me between A432 and A440 performances, the A432 music sounds more "elegant" and less "neurotic," so to speak. I am not trying to rationalize or to justify my preference by some mystical or numerological reasons. The lower tuning according to Verdi, while not being too low, is simply easier on strings and voices, therefore allowing for more expression and less exertion. Notwithstanding the BS of New Age arguments.

@andersbarfodsvaneskolan9378

Nice answer. I feel 440Hz is either too high or too low for my voice' natural resonance. Former European pitch at A4=435Hz (12-TET) is a nice really nice.. not to low and not to high.. I tried A4=430Hz (12-TET) but then certain notes in the chest range of the voice sits a little too low. 435Hz strikes a good balance for my voice between the different registers of the voice using 12-TET. At one point both the Vienna and the Paris opera were using a pitch at 434Hz (1835), which seem right. At 430Hz using 12-TET i feel I go slightly sharp when trying to give power and volume to lower chest notes.. To conclude: In my opinion we should go back to the old European standard at 435Hz for the industrial standard..

The business about singers "being divas" and not wanting to strain their voices by singing to 440 tuning would benefit from more explanation. Verdi wrote for specific kinds of voices. He scored his music with the lower tuning in order to write for an operatic voice type that had a warm, rich timbre in the middle voice that could cut through an entire orchestra without amplification. The voices had high notes but did not "live" in the upper register for pages and pages of music. These kinds of voices have their "passaggios," the register shifts that occur up and down the scale, occur at specific points in the scale. (piano strings get longer, shorter, wider thinner, and every instrument has their ability to change tube or string length for pitch)--. The higher tuning makes a singer feel like they are constantly sitting between two chairs--a bit unstable and very uncomfortable. That's what Domingo talked about when he said "strained voices." The voices wear out sooner, and what has happened with the higher tuning is that lighter and higher operatic voices have had to take on roles that are too big for them, causing another kind of strain. It is like the difference between a sprinter and a relay racer. Different sports, although related, require different kinds of athletes. Love, Mom

That is a really good question. When Verdi wrote, 432 tuning wasn't even standard tuning from western country to country, even city to city, especially in Italy! Moving the opera key down would have resulted in a muddy tone and sluggishness of spirit for both the singers and the instrumentalists.

awesome knowledge

Speaking of flat earthers, I thought it was just a long running joke that pretty much says a person is dumb, and that flat earthers weren't actually a real thing. I was once told that if I ever found myself in an argument with one, don't try to argue back because you're never going to convince him or her that the earth is round. Again I was thinking that it was basically saying "don't argue with dumb people, because you won't convince them they're wrong", that there's no way people actually believe the earth is flat. I then lived the unfortunate day that I met a flat earther, and forgetting how it started, I thought he was playing the part of a flat earther, making a joke at his own expense to make people laugh (I do this also, make jokes at my own expense to make people laugh). After 5 minutes or so of talking and minor arguing with this guy, I realized he was serious, and remembered what that one dude told me about not engaging. He got pretty enraged that I wasn't listening to him or partipating in the argument any longer and just laughing at him. It turned into like a full on yelling match, trying to get him to shut the F up. It escalated into a rather pathetic brawl on his side. He punched me, like in the chest, so rib cage, didn't hurt. Then I flogged him right in the stomach, which made him puke and fall over. He got arrested.

My reaction to the beginning of the video was entirely different. I had already made my own investigation about it, and, other than people struggling to hit notes and violin strings breaking with A440, I concluded that A432 had no meaning... But watching Adam Neely said it was real made me doubt myself and wonder for a minute "oh... well, I guess I'll have to turn all my music into A432 after all...", so it was an actual relief to see that I was right originally. But he could have convinced me after all the videos of him I have watched, where he knows his stuff (so A432 would have been best).

The most-clearly-audible effect of messing around with absolute pitch is to force woodwind-instrument performers to *strain* to “lip” up or down the pitches of their instruments, most of which are designed to play A=440Hz. (Yes yes, I know that some are designed for A=442Hz, for example, and you occasionally run into “vintage” instruments tuned to 435 or 457.)

I thought that it was "nothing gonna stop us now"

The old electronic organ at one church was tuned to 438Hz so everybody had to tune their instruments to the same 438Hz (except the drummer). We could not tell what was 440 & what was 438 in isolation but play them together & something sounds out of tune. It doesn't matter what you choose, as long as EVERY melodic instruments was tuned to the same frequency for the same relative note (some instruments are tuned with a 1 or more semitone shifts). At around 416 the semitone below & above are around 24Hz (Ab=392.652, A=416, Bb=440.737) so changes between 392 & 440 represent approx. 2 semitone range for shifting key. A440 tuning has G=391.995, Ab=415.305, A=440.000, Bb=466.164 2 notes sounded together will have a repeating beat with pulse of slightly louder then softer (coinciding peaks=beat) to the frequency of the difference between the 2 notes (eg. A+Ab = 440Hz-415.305Hz = 24.695 Hz beat). This becomes very noticeable for 2 lower notes close together so the beat is

if they allow me to buy the rest of the notes i could theoretically own the *minor* scale??

If I hadn't read a comment cryptically saying something about you arguing with yourself, I may not have, and have always thought you'd bought into some reasonable-sounding version of this crap.

Any conversation about how frequencies affect the body has to involve cymatics, which no one in the modern day has any real idea about. Also the Schumann resonance was never a rounded 8, it was almost eight, like 7.8ish, and this resonance has actually increased to more than twice what was originally measured. Again, until someone can match a frequency to a color and a shape, arguing about what frequencies are better or worse for us is pointless.

I watched the whole thing utter rubbish

Im just discovering solfeggio frequencies and im definitely not a musician but wouldnt it make sense that the higher the hz the more energetic the music would be and the lower the more calming it is? Could it be that people that prefer 432hz are more harmony or inner peace seeking and people that prefer 440hz are looking for more energy or stimulating sounds? Could it be that more extroverts would prefer 440hz and introverts prefer 432hz? I personally have enjoyed and felt more calmed by 432 hz music compared to 440hz Im diagnosed with adhd, intermittent explosive disorder and Sensory processing disorder, all come with extreme constant anxiety. I get overwhelmed by excessive volumes or sensory things. 432 hz seems to have a profound difference on me as I dont feel any form of anxiety compared to 440hz. Im also curious if the reason could be cognition difference? Is it correlated with IQ? I took a proctored mensa certified iq test when I turned 18 and I scored 120 iq or top 10% which is gifted but not genius contrary to what everyone thought of me. I definitely had thought based on the innacurate online iq tests that consistently said I had an iq of 135. The thing that does make me question 440hz is the water test. The vibrations are very chaotic and not organized or harmonious as opposed to 432 hz is beautifully organized in water

@pierrebroccoli.9396

The water test is a given and also now we are rediscovering the effect of frequency on cells. I know that one of the reasons for pitching up was at the advent of the 20th Century, thanks to Wagner - Orchestras had become huge, including the brass section and the pitching up was to help lift the strings so they could be heard over the Brass and Woodwinds. Me, I prefer chamber style or more intimate settings and also agree with Verdi as I am an classical singer by training and have sung everything from Gregorian Chants - Motets - Masses to Modern Operas and Choral works. 432Hz sits on my ear nicer especially with the higher voices which can become shrill and strained at higher ranges if singing at 440 or 442Hz. It also helps the poor Tenor Sections in Choirs who struggle a lot to stay in tune during a performance same issues as Sopranos (and no, not the Sopranos from the TV series)😁

Why not A=431, or A=433, why an arbitrary A=432

Wut

I preferred the 440 version. I guess writing and producing music in that tuning for the last 40 years has somewhat conditioned my mind :). Having said that, I have recorded some artists (especially the guitar solo players) who feel that every guitar has a tuning it "likes" better. And those vary from 428 to 442 in some instances. In some countries, where standardisation isn't an issue, the tuning of the native instrument may vary from day to day.

i honestly just LIKE 432 hz. i don't believe the "everything vibrating at 432 or stuff like that" theories...

Jacob Collier: A = whAtever

Actually, he said, that changing the pitch may make some chords sound better. But it also creates problems with other chords.

@@Kevin-mb4xf Nah that's a discussion about temperament rather than tuning. The point of this video is that music is more about the relationships between the notes than the pure frequencies of the notes themselves. What Jacob has said (and he wasn't the first) is that if you tune to equal temperament you might get a more "pure sounding" tonic chord but if you then try and play another chord in that key it might sound terrible. Equal temperament is designed to make the whole scale sort of near enough. Adam has another video on 432 which goes into temperaments (kzread.info/dash/bejne/mZyJ1Y9xZLGncbg.html&ab_channel=AdamNeely) but I'd also recommend Jacob Collier's Moon River logic session breakdown. He goes into detail about both tuning and temperament and explains it better than I can. It's true though that he does tune between keys for certain pieces (which makes no odds to me as I don't have perfect pitch) but to me the way he modulates between "normal" keys and these "in between" keys actually does have an interesting effect on the music and I think is valuable even to someone, like me, without perfect pitch.

The thing abt jacob collier is that for a typical person, if you tune A to 432 hz but still use equal temperament, it will sound the same unless we're given the sound of A440 for reference bc our ears identify intervals rather than individual notes. Jacob collier on the other hand has perfect pitch, and he sees each note as having a specific feeling so he can use the same temperament system and still feel a difference. In a presentation (at Berkelee I think?) he talked abt how "A432 is indoors and A440 is outdoors" and how to him E major is the brightest key in 12 tone equal temperament. Most people couldn't tell you whether the key someone was playing in was Eb, F, F#, etc. But jacob collier perceives each pitch as having a specific timbre and even emotion.

My old weed dealer was a (very bad) electronic musician who was sincerely into 432 and wouldn't listen to any reason or different opinions on the subject. Total cult like attitude towards it.
