It's a superpower, in a way.
To have perfect pitch is to be able to hear music and immediately recognize the notes that compose it.
The musician and YouTuber Saturax owns it: “It's something that we don't actually control, it's really something that is suffered.
"
Does having perfect pitch rhyme with being a good musician?
Not necessarily: "Absolute pitch is not a thing of musical genius."
Some musical geniuses have it, Duke Ellington is one of them, but what makes a good musician is not his ability to hear notes in the absolute, as what makes a good painter is not. his ability to know colors is the stroke of a pencil.
