A is generally used as a standard for tuning. When the orchestra tunes, the oboe plays an A and the rest of the instruments tune to match that pitch. Every string instrument in the orchestra has an A string, from which each player can tune the rest of their instrument. A is also used in combination with a number e.g. A 440 to label the pitch standard. The number designates the hertz cycles per second of sound waves . A lower number equals a lower pitch. By an international treaty signed in 1939, modern pitch is standardized at A440 pitch standard A 440 . However, tuning has varied over time, geographical region, or instrument maker. In 17th century Europe , tunings ranged from about A 374 to A 403, approximately two to three semitone s below A 440. Historical examples exist of instruments, tuning forks, or standards ranging from A 309 to A 455.3, a difference of almost six semitones Citation needed date April 2010 . Although the official standard today is A 440, some orchestral groups and chamber groups prefer to tune a little higher, at A 442 or even A 444. Baroque pitch is usually cited as A 415, which is a semitone lower than modern pitch. A0 is the lowest note on the standard piano . The octaves follow A1, A2, etc.. A7 is a few pitches lower than eighth octave C C8 , the highest note on the standard piano. The note A is not considered to be a certain milestone or mark to hit with voice as, for example, Tenor C is, but it can be extremely demanding in certain octave s.
