Ah, that Bach fellow wrote a mountain of notes for the keyboard, a giant book of preludes and fugues they call the Well-Tempered Clavier. 'Well-tempered' is a clever tuning trick so you can play in any key without the notes sounding sour. But I'll tell you what it really means: it means frustration! I tried for one month to learn a little piece, my fingers feeling like thick chapatis on the keys. It's not music, it's maths for the hands, and my tiny kingdom has always been the rhythm of the tava, not the black and white of a piano.
