The AI said, "The piece utilizes several chromatic notes that would not be present in the key of C major."

I would have to buy quality sheet music in several keys to see if that statement would hold up.

I also know little about Claude Debussy. Did he use equal-temperament tuning?

With just intonation, do melody notes sound out of tune the same in all keys?

Just Intonation: smooth chords, melody notes that sound out of tune. 2. Equal Temperament – melody notes sound in tune, chords sound rough. One of the best ways to understand the difference Equal Temperament and Just Intonation is to play harmonicas tuned to JI and ET and compare the way they sound.

I suspect there are technical issues involved as to why Db. People also come to accept that some particular musical key or chord represents something like dark or sad because they are told that is the case.

Musical lemmings...lol
