Several aspects of this author's subjective experiences concerned with perception of pitch are at variance with the experiences reported by Paul T. Brady, J. Acoust. Soc Am.48, 883–887 (1970). In particular, my recognition is not tied to a specific scale (though, of course, nomenclature must be); the precision of recognition shows little fluctuation, if any; and changes in tuning do not influence the recognition of pitch, although such changes may influence the performance of remembered music and the ease of transposition. Tonal memory overrides motor memory for the performance of music learned on instruments tuned to initially different keys.
