Anybody can sing or play in tune


Perhaps all that is needed is (flight hours or) singing hours and listening correctly.


By listening correctly we may mean a very low acoustic intensity level of the backing track, karaoke track, radio playing etc.


Or the correct acoustic intensity. See Phil Ramone.


Pitch perception depends on acoustic stimulus intensity.


See page 77 of possibky the best book ever written on sound and hearing, by S.S. Stevens, the founder of Harvard Univeristy Psychophysics lab.


It is great fun that this book can be found in many typical households.
