Master Tuning
Matching the Pitch with Other Instruments (Master Tuning)
When playing ensemble with other instruments and in other such instances, you can match
the standard pitch to another instrument.
The standard pitch generally refers to the pitch of the note that’s played when you finger the
middle A key (A4). For a cleaner ensemble sound while performing with one or more other
instruments, ensure that each instrument’s standard pitch is in tune with that of the other
instruments. This tuning of all the instruments to a standard pitch is called “master tuning.”
415 .3 Hz–440 .0 Hz–466 .2 Hz
Temperament
Changing the Tuning Method (Temperament)
You can play classical styles such as Baroque using historic temperaments (tuning methods).
Most modern songs are composed for and played in equal temperament, the most common
tuning in use today. But at one time, there were a wide variety of other tuning systems in
existence. By playing in the temperament that was in use when a composition was created,
you can experience the sonorities of chords originally intended for that song.
For details, refer to “Temperaments” (p. 43).
Equal, Just Major, Just Minor, Pythagorean, Kirnberger, Meantone, Werckmeister, Arabic
Temperament Key
Specifying a Song’s Tonic (Temperament Key)
When playing with tuning other than equal temperament, you need to specify the
temperament key for tuning the song to be performed (that is, the note that corresponds to C
for a major key or to A for a minor key).
If you choose an equal temperament, there’s no need to select a temperament key.
