 Re: Should orchestral musicians be forced to retire at 65?

Hi Ruben. When great pianist Sviatoslav Richter reached his later years, he complained that his pitch perception had changed, and it was a problem. He'd always had perfect pitch, but gradually he was hearing pitches higher than they were, as much as a whole tone higher (if I'm recalling right.) He'd want to correct what he was playing to make his perceived pitch right. That forced him to sharply curtail his performing and led to depression.
