PERFECT PITCH (2002) tells the story of two musically gifted brothers, one of whom is adopted. The younger of the two becomes a famous conductor; the elder shies away from that choice, and turns to Musicology. The question is whether Eelco, the conductor, adorns himself with borrowed feathers, including perfect pitch. Supposedly his gifts came from a Mephistopheles-like character, in exchange for propagating the latter's experimental musical compositions. The plot unfolds via recollections, diary pages, minutes of meetings, interviews, and e-mail.
