Oh, of course!!  Key character speaks volumes.  By the way, my Steinway is
in a mid-Victorian tuning, one harpsichord in Young, the virginal in quarter
comma mean-tone, my upright in late Victorian, another harpsichord speaks
French, ..... I have to go to my friends house to tune and play his
fortepiano, generally in something which speaks Viennese.
