I don't understand this. A 432 Hz sine wave is a tone. How can a piece of music be "played" in a tone? If you're referring to the encoding frequency, that wouldn't apply until digital recording methods appeared in the eighties.
Sorry I didn't explain it well in my last post. 432hz tuning means that A-4 on the piano is tuned to 432hz. Go up an octave to A-5 and it doubles frequency so 864hz. This obviously changes every note's frequency as the keys are spread out in between.

Are you winding up the tin-foil hatters?

440hz tuning looks like: A4 440hz A3 220hz, A2 110hz, A1 55hz and A0 27.5hz.
432hz tuning looks like: A4 432hz A3 216hz, A2 108hz, A1 54hz and A0 27hz.

Hey @rail606, don't apologize, thanks for the clarification. You're basically talking about scales then?
