    Frequency: Frequency is a physical property of a sound wave and is measured in Hertz (Hz). It represents the number of oscillations or cycles of a sound wave that occur in a unit of time, typically one second. In simpler terms, frequency is the rate at which a sound wave vibrates or repeats itself. Higher frequencies correspond to more oscillations per second, while lower frequencies correspond to fewer oscillations per second. For example, a sound wave with a frequency of 440 Hz completes 440 cycles in one second.
    Pitch: Pitch, on the other hand, is a perceptual attribute of sound that relates to how high or low we perceive a sound to be. It is closely related to frequency, but it's not the same thing. Our perception of pitch is influenced by the frequency of a sound wave, but it is also influenced by other factors, such as the human auditory system's sensitivity to different frequencies. Pitch is what allows us to distinguish between high-pitched and low-pitched sounds.
    In general, higher-frequency sound waves are associated with higher-pitched sounds, and lower-frequency sound waves are associated with lower-pitched sounds. However, this relationship is not always straightforward. The perception of pitch can be influenced by factors like harmonics, overtones, and the context in which the sound is heard. For example, musical instruments often produce a complex mixture of frequencies that contribute to the overall perceived pitch of a note.

    if only they knew how much better the music would be if they tuned to a=432hz instead of 440.

    Very well explained sir. In the 3d graph shown of a cello playing A, what is in the z-axis? There seems to be a variation in the z-axis too and how does that impact the sound we hear?

    I've noticed that 22, 44, 66, 88 etc up to 440hz and beyond work with PI and the number 7, as in 22/7 = PI, 44/14=PI etc it is the only whole-number set that works.
    Also the magic 432 tuning is two octave ...(or is it three?)... above 144 another cool number.

    What's the deal with people obsessing over 440Hz vs 432Hz?
    Magical frequencies, in my opinion, is produced more by the source of inspiration, and then the quality of the composition -- how each element is combined.
    If 432Hz is magical by itself, then every piece of music transcribed in it should be automatically superior to most pieces written/performed in 440Hz.

    if you take a bum and educate him or her ...you get an educated bum...whom is beholding because you educated him or her...therefore not intrested in rockn the boat.. so the truth by default is still not only sequestered, but suppressed, further emphasising voracity of truth about 432Hz powerfull effect in music to create harmony, chaos is easier to rule than harmony...HUM

      if you were listening to it on a laptop, A solar eclipse is an eclipse occurring when the Sun, Moon and Earth are on a single line, the Moon being in the middle. Seen from the Earth, the Moon is in front of the Sun and thus part or all of the light of the Sun is hidden by the Moon. Thus it may seem that a piece has been taken out of the Sun, or that it has suddenly disappeared. There are three types of solar eclipses:
      A partial solar eclipse: Only part of the Sun and the Moon overlap
      A total solar eclipse: All of the Sun is hidden by the Moon
      A ring-formed or annular eclipse: Sometimes the Moon's umbra does not reach the Earth's surface. This can happen if the Moon is near apogee. This is similar to a penumbral eclipse. During an annular eclipse, a ring of the Sun can still be seen around the Moon. The Moon's shadow umbra often fails to reach the Earth.
      Solar eclipses can only happen during the new moon phase.
      Warning: Never look at the Sun directly, even during an eclipse. To do so can cause retinal damage and affect one's eyesight Always use protection, such as welder's glasses, that are recommended for the extreme brightness of the sun, or view the image of the Sun indirectly on, say, a piece of paper, using a simple pinhole camera. Sunglasses are not sufficient!
