432 Hz, otherwise known as Verdi’s A, was the music tuning standard prior to today’s tuning of 440 Hz. It is widely considered a superior tuning that makes music more pleasant to listen to. It is also said to have a positive influence on the mind and body due to its relationship with our planet.

Schumann Resonance - The Heartbeat of the Planet

 Named after Winfried Otto Schumann, the German physicist who discovered the theory, the Schumann Resonance refers to the electromagnetic frequencies between 7.86 and 8 Hz activated by lightning in the area between the ionosphere and the surface of the Earth. These resonances are considered by some to be  our planet’s heartbeat.

By working from a starting point of 8 Hz, we find note C at either 128 or 256 Hz, depending on the scale we use. And note A? We'd find that at 432 Hz, otherwise known as “Verdi’s A”. In short, 432 Hz is in tune with the Earth itself. We don’t find any such significance with 440 Hz.

432 Hz Benefits

432 continues to show up wherever we look, including at ancient sites like the Great Pyramid of Giza, Stonehenge, and Sri Yantra. 

As noted by Scottish born composer Brian T. Collins:

From my own observations, some of the harmonic overtone partials of A=432 Hz 12T5 appear to line up to natural patterns and also the resonance of solitons.

Solitons need a specific range to form into the realm of density and span from the micro to the macro cosmos. Solitons are not only found in water mechanics, but also in the ion-acoustic breath between electrons and protons.

Brian has also documented 432 Hz’s relation to the golden mean, Phi, as it vibrates in tune with nature, our biology and DNA, and even our consciousness.

432 Hz is considered to have the potential to synchronize both hemispheres of our brain: the logical and analytical left brain and the creative and intuitive right brain. This creates what scientists call “whole brain synchronization”, maximizing our potential as thinkers, artists, and spiritual beings.

Other music scholars have revealed further compelling evidence that 440 Hz is not ideal:

In her book, Intervals Scales Tones and the Concert Pitch C=128hz, Maria Reynolds showed that pitches higher than the scientific C prime of 128 Hz, which coincides with an A of 432 Hz, create a disconnect between our bodies and consciousness, as well as social friction with the people around us.

That means 440 Hz is potentially contributing to the internal and external strife of the modern world. Could it be that the 440 Hz it is smothering our intuition, hindering our creativity, cutting us off from our spirituality, and making us more antisocial?

Make 432 Hz Your Standard

Between 432 Hz’s mathematic and scientific significance and its positive effects on the mind and body, it may seem obvious that we should switch for 432 Hz. tuning and ditch the recent 440 Hz. Music at 432 Hz is nicer for hearing, softer, brighter and more beautiful than music in 440 Hz. Though the untrained ear may not hear this difference; it can be felt.

Introduce more 432 Hz music to your life.

Over time, listening to beautiful music created at 432 Hz tuning increases your sense of well-being and connectedness to the wider world. You might find it engaging your intuition, increasing your creativity, sharpening your intellect, and even expanding your consciousness.

Many describe 432 Hz music as an internal experience, as opposed to the external sensation felt with 440 Hz. It is an all-consuming, innate connection, a more enjoyable, pleasant listening experience.
