Hi Michael,

> but how do those gifted with perfect pitch cope with all this?

First off, I wouldn’t exactly call it a “gift”: it’s actually quite irritating 
at times. For example, it is essentially impossible for me to play a piece on 
an electronic piano with the “Transpose” button engaged.

As to your precise question… For me, the difference between “Baroque pitch(es)” 
and “modern pitch(es)” are small enough that I can either just adjust my ear 
for the duration of the performance, or imagine a key signature one semi-tone 
up or down to compensate for the visual conflict(s).

Cheers,
Kieren.
