I would imagine that true perfect pitch must actually be a curse.
How long does an orchestra or band's pitch stay exactly at A=440 (or 441/442 whatever) as the temperature changes during a performance.
In a pit situation these changes can be really extreme and it's virtually
impossible to stay on pitch, just keeping relative pitch between wind and strings is enough of a problem.
And how many recordings actually reproduce at exact pitch even assuming they were on pitch to start with?
And if yoy were brought up on 440 could you bear to listen to recordings done by say the Berlin Phil at 444+ ?
