RE: No one likes 466Hz... (Monteverdi Vespers...)
Isn’t it so that a mans instrument 🎻 sets to your body etc so when another musician plays the instrument it’s different in sound , and that you can better not borrow your instrument to someone else or is that untrue ?
In part it is true.... although, alot of it has to do more with musicians just generally being precious.
Each person does have a preferred style of playing... which means that they are likely to be attracted to instruments that complement that. However, it shouldn't mean that you CAN'T play another instrument... just that you might not be initially as comfortable with it.
It's like driving a car, if you hop in someone else's car... it shouldn't be a problem... but it is a little strange.
However, some musicians take it too far and get prima donna about it. Me, I have many instruments and I change all the time (sometimes, even in the same concert...)... so, I'm a bit more practical... I can't afford to be precious!
