Pitches what they've written? (5)
I believe the answer is:
notes
'pitches' is the definition.
The answer and definition can be both human attributes as well as being plural nouns.
Perhaps they are linked in a way I don't understand?
I don't understand the remainder of the clue.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for notes that I've seen before include "registers?" , "Short written messages" , "Short missives" , "Sounds" , "Written comments" .)
