Re: A = 440 Hz OR 432 Hz?

Its true that Western ears hear so called micro-tunings as out of tune.
Agree: yes, even some of those who play "out" music. It's just
unfamiliarity, (it
took me years to "get" Thai classical music.)
Disagree: church organ, violin/viol family, choral, orchestra(if no piano
involved)
none of those play in equal temperament, and they aren't known for out of
tuneness.
It's a "textbook/academic thing" that equal temperament is(or was ever)
ubiquitous,
not even Bach used it.
