Tattie Bogle, again my point. People who don't have perfect pitch really can't understand people who do. The fact is I can't play a guitar with a capo. People without perfect pitch tell me I 'should' be able to. And, yes, probably with training I could....but it would be mentally transposing.

And again there isn't 'anything near it' in terms of true perfect pitch. You either have it or don't.   I had it all my life...until I reached a certain age. Now it's gone.......even though some of the 'habits' from having it remain.

So my challenge is to learn to join the world of people who have good ears and great relative pitch.....but not perfect pitch.

And, despite what some programs are claiming, people can't 'cultivate' perfect pitch. I believe they can cultivate something else.....and people's experience of being able to sing the same song in the same key each because they become familiar with how that key 'feels'....I think is a good example of that.

So is there anybody else out there with perfect pitch?   I'd also love to hear from anybody who has found themselves in my situation where changes in the brain (that comes with age) has caused them to lose their perfect pitch.
