Oh Contraire Mon Amie:
As a lad I lelped my father remove a pipe organ from a
theater and install it in our house. Even though it
had twelve foot ceilings some of the pipes had to be
mitered to go up and then across the ceiling, in fact
some of them were mitered twice and went back down
towards the floor.There was no descernable loss in
clairity.
