I don't know how old you are Magnus, but when I was in my teens, the M.M.O.
series was so helpful to get a feeling for playing along with an orchestra, a
pianist or a smaller ensemble. (string quartet, etcetera) Back then, there were
records used and if you had a variable speed turntable you could really tune to
440-A. Now, with CD's you are at the mercy of the player, but by using longer
or shorter barrels and tuning rings you can still enjoy the experience.
I thought these records were just the greatest thing when I was starting
out. Enjoy!
