Hi Ricard, The "thrust" of the article is that any unison will *draw* one hertz due to the coupled nature of piano strings. In other words *if* you accept the article an error of approximately 4 cents on a unison at A4 is not only acceptable--it is the *best* that can be done by ear alone, without resorting to using a third note as a *referrance* or *test* interval (e.g. 17th below) . I don't think that many people would agree with that.

Mr. Bremmer has been passed the olive branch so many times it is almost unbelieviable. His *very* first visit to the list was critical of freedom of speech. I hope you are not joining him. > >Ricard de La Rosa >PRO PIANO Regards, Don Rose, B.Mus., A.M.U.S., A.MUS., R.M.T., R.P.T.
