The question of pitch

The video discusses the differences in music tuning, focusing on how modern pitch is usually set at 440 Hertz, but orchestras often play slightly higher. It highlights the historical pitch of Beethoven's era, which was lower, making singing easier due to less extreme tessitura. The video also compares the vocal demands of Beethoven's Ninth Symphony with other works, noting the challenges of high notes and angular writing, and how a lower pitch can aid performance.
