Q: you said somewhere here that "that it is much much more important to know what notes are relative to each other, rather than knowing the absolute pitch of one note, out in the desert." does that mean you think relative pitch is more important than perfect pitch? and if so, why?
A: it's kind of like when you are drawing a face .... it is probably more important to know where the ear is relative to the other ear than to know what the geographical coordinates are of the ear. at least if you are doing drawings
