Re: What is this clarinet pitched in?

Author: dubrosa22  Date:   2017-12-06 09:26 Probably higher than 440 but possibly not by much however if it is from the first half of the 19th century: '... We start the 19th century at around 425 Hz, move up to 430, head for 445 around the middle of the century, have a brief flirtation with higher pitches around 1875-85 (or perhaps earlier), then plummet back to pitches around 440.' http://www.mcgee-flutes.com/Tuning.html Of course the Metzler family did produce instruments during the peak of English High Pitch madness (and beyond)... http://www.mcgee-flutes.com/Metzler.htm V P.S.
