The geometric relationship between the note frequencies of a C major chord and a D major chord on the piano is not the same. The key of piece is responsible for some of its “feel”. So it’s not unreasonable that they have different “representations” on the piano although the differences may be subtle.


I believe this is not the case in today’s ubiquitous equal temperament?


You are correct - my mistake.
