Der Held must sit his A.. patiently, study for some 7, 8 years, be as critically listened to as possible (the major feat in he whole process, I think...) and...the SCORE MUST BE PERFORMED WITH ORIGINAL INSTRUMENTS AND TUNNING! Tichatschek sang at a probable A-412/430Hz pitch. It counts almost for nothing on ther letter, but it does make a big difference on a whole performance.
Interesting, huh?
