 Re: How good is your sense of intonation?

Most, or many, musicians will probably go 4/4. My problem isn't hearing intonation clashing, it's hearing it in an ensemble and deciding a) if I'm the one who's off and b) which way.

Becoming familiar with my instruments' tuning, becoming familiar with other ensemble members' tuning, and sometimes referring to a tuner all help, yet sometimes doubt remains. Then if you try an adjustment, maybe it gets better and maybe it doesn't - is someone else trying their own adjustment at the same time? I've gotten into a back-and-forth thing with someone sitting next to me before. If possible, I try to match the section leader, or sometimes certain other instruments.

Good intonation in a large ensemble is hard.
