Subject: RE: Wondering: Is Perfect Pitch Common?
doesterr ... No ... perfect pitch is not acquired ... one is born with it and either you have it or you don't. If your wife does have perfect pitch, then she was born with it. Relative pitch can appear to be like perfect pitch, but it is not. It is an acquired talent and to be admired, for sure, some of the very best musicians, singers, etc., do not have even relative pitch ... moonchild
