The Well-Tempered Clavier

In this week’s episode of HBO’s Westworld series ‘The Well-Tempered Clavier’ Dolores and Bernard reconnect with their pasts; Maeve makes a bold proposition to Hector; Teddy finds enlightenment, at a price.

The Well-Tempered Clavier”: “Well tempered” means that the twelve notes per octave of the standard keyboard are tuned in such a way that it is possible to play music in most major or minor keys and it will not sound perceptibly out of tune.  This shows up in JS Bach’s “The Well-Tempered Clavier.” Clavier: a keyboard instrument, especially one with strings, such as the harpsichord.   You can hear this in the following selection:
