Are you among those who can differentiate between the two?
Yes, the cor anglais has a more extended timbral structure.
Can you tell the difference between a violin and an alto violin (viola)
playing the same note?
Yes, there is extra 'richness' to the viola sound.
Can you differentiate between a tenor and alto
saxophone playing in the same register?
Usually, although I find that more difficult.
If not, the psychologist must be right:-)
Only if he meant that some people (such as recording engineers) tend
to suffer premature deafness.
