   As a layman -oops- layperson, the pitch passions are beyond my comprehension. Still, my newly acquired Viennese grand is tuned lower than 440. And I can sense it: "Ah, je vous dire-, maman" variations by Mozart loose their propulsion after the theme is "transposed" to  de facto B major scale. Andrew Makuch
