Dear David, in Germany they use A 444 but the musicians can play at A442.
When Wolfgang Meyer was in Brazil he played with A 442.
By the way I play with A442 and I am bery excited to try your sistem.
See you there!!

All the best

Assunto: [kl] A=Pitch in Europe (for ClarFest)

>I'll be at the ClarFest in Belgium with some sample Accompaniment CD's for
>players to hear, and buy (at the Rico Grand Concert/Boosey table). What are
>the A= pitches that are played the most there? Is it A=440, 442, or 444 -
>what is the most common A pitch played? I'll bring A=440, and probably one
>other pitch - which other one to bring?
>Also if I put 3 pieces on one CD - what would they be? I was thinking
>Mozart Concerto, and 2 others (possibly Debussy Rhapsodie, Brahms 1) -
>recommendations wanted.
