From Patrick Doyle
In a piece on perfect pitch, you write “Mozart had it; Leonard Bernstein had it; even Jimi Hendrix reportedly had perfect pitch…” (1 September, p 20). What did you mean by “even” Jimi Hendrix? It seems an oddly derogatory remark about a musician widely regarded as one of the most talented guitar players of the 20th century.
