One of my former band mates is all about the hearing colors thing and he is friendly with a concert pianist who also experiences synesthesia. He is always talking to me about this or that note being this or that color.
I know it is a real thing but not everyone experiences it. Consequently, while it is an interesting phenomenon, I don’t see it as a useful means of musical communication, which is how he constantly attempts to use it. I tell him I am tone blind.
