Equal temparament dates back at least to Bach, and he is frequently cited as an early influence on its adoption. "The Well-Tempered Clavier" (German: Das Wohltemperierte Klavier),[2] BWV 846–893, is a collection of solo keyboard music composed by Johann Sebastian Bach. He first gave the title to a book of preludes and fugues in all 24 major and minor keys, dated 1722. The composition was specifically created to demonstrate the greater versatility for key changes on an instrument constructed and tuned to equal temperament.
spot on, now please no more crap about the end of the first world war.
