minuephysics - Why it's Impossible to Tune a Piano
Hey! I'm a piano tuner by trade! Awesome to see this on the sift!
Check out this website if you want to delve deeper into this stuff: http://www.rollingball.com/TemperamentsFrames.htm
Essentially, back in the day, each key (talking Cmajor/Cminor, Dmajor/Dminor, etc.) had intervals that were tuned a little differently and so each key had it's own character and the more sharps and flats the key had the crazier it sounded (and the less it was used!). Under the section "Key Color" it shows you what kind of character the key had be it sad or happy. pretty interesting stuff!
Not until the advent of piano analysis was equal temperament possible. So in equal temperament every key is acceptable to play in albeit all slightly out of tune.
This further goes into why barbershop harmony (or all acapella music, really) is so interesting because it and its overtones are not bound by any temperament.
