Klaus, beautiful playing! I'm curious about the 432hz tuning. I have a fascination with that tuning and it's implications. Do you mind me asking what differences you've noticed using that tuning?

[naivhoerenundsehen]

thanks for your kind words kevinkmny;

i'm using the 432hz for several reasons:

1. i like the way my guitar sounds!

2. the strings can be played two times longer.

3. using high tension strings and playing several hours a day it's a lot easier for my fingers

kind regards

Klaus Paul

Just curious, are you aware of the connection to sacred geometry with the 432 tuning? As I understand it in this tuning many notes align with mathematical constants like PI and the fibonacci sequence. I think that the change to 440 was a conscious effort to disable some of the power of sound....

[naivhoerenundsehen]

Well, i heard about the connection, and the impuls to tune down to 432Hz was a german scientist who thinks it's got a positive effect on the listener such as learning more easily. But from my perstective it's not easier to learn the pieces by heart.

Plus playing a tempered instrument all intervals except the octave are wrong in a natural sense, but as i said, i like the sound of my guitar better. Feel free to send me any information you have on the topic.

kind regards

Beautiful, you played with your heart, I really felt that.

I have been searching for examples of music played with A432hz. It's difficult to find anything. I read that it's the frequency Mozart intended his music to be played at. I've also read that resonance is greatly increased. And I've read strong opinions that A440hz should simply not be used as it is detrimental to music and listeners.

[pooferbug]

I'm giving discounts to people who want their piano tuned to 432hz instead of 440hz.

I wish music was as celebrated in rural America as it is in Europe.

Sensational... congratulations!

Incredible.. powerful, loved it :) keep it up!

Guys - don't put to much into this 432 Hz tuning - just listen to his great Adagio. I'm sure it would have sounded just as nice tuned at 440 Hz.. As far as any geometrical alignment with PI or such - that's the sort of stuff that I want to avoid when building a guitar because if I can't control it I would end up with a lot of unwanted resonances. Or as in this case a NICE sound - it's all a mystery..

And you can't play with people and that's most classical guitarist should do more :-)

Nice sound and ver clean playing. Personally I think the recording would sound better if the mid frequencies of the guitar were not so loud. So I would use a little reverb and also lower the mid frequencies or play around with the position of the microphone. Of course your taste on the matter might differ a lot to mine! Well done.

After playing with A=432hz a bit a few weeks back, i never went back to 440. To me 432 has a much more mellow sound (on my steel string)

You have an amazing talent. Thank you for sharing it with everyone.
