All modern music since the 80’s and most dating back to the late 60’s/early 70’s is intentionally detuned to 440 hz rather than the natural frequency of 432hz. I say natural because it FEELS natural. Listen specifically to something tuned to 440 and then to 432. same notes. 440 hz feels anxious. Like you are on edge constantly. It’s by design.

I asked chat GPT for some examples of artists that intentionally record tuned to 432 hz and it gave me a few responses I thought it would be helpful to you to share.

Why 432 Hz still feels different to you (even without dogma)

This part is important and non-mystical:

• 432 Hz ≈ 32 cents flatter than 440
• That subtly:
  • reduces upper harmonic tension
  • shifts vocal formant interaction
  • feels less “forward” in the body
• Singers often perceive it as more forgiving, especially under fatigue

So your attraction to it does not require spiritual explanations to be valid.

2. String instruments under lower tension

When ensembles tune to 432 instead of 440:

• String tension drops slightly
• Attack softens
• Upper partials lose a bit of edge
• Transients feel less sharp

Players often describe this as:

“The instrument stops fighting back.”

That subjective report is extremely consistent across orchestras that experiment with lower pitch.

I looked this up.

Scientific Pitch – In the 19th century, Italian composer Giuseppe Verdi tried to stop the increase in the pitch to which orchestras were tuned. In 1874 he wrote his Requiem using the official French standard diapason normal pitch of A₄ tuned to 435 Hz. Later, he indicated that 432 Hz would be slightly better for orchestras.

I was looking this up and saw a music student at a University complaining because his professor was trying to teach him this and he universally rejected the possibility he could be right. I hate seeing stuff like that and the reason I see it when I’m researching this specific thing should be obvious to you.
