John Howell's story about Arthur Squires took me back to my student days at Cambridge. About 6 or 8 of us were crowded round a piano trying to sing Tallis's 'The Lamentations of Jeremiah' from one copy of the music. It was all in various C clefs. I also had a problem another time trying to sing music a third down from the written notes----the work being transposed to suit the occasion. i don't have perfect pitch but a third is too much! Obviously if one's doing it frequently or happen to be a music scholar it becomes second nature.
