E minor is a minor scale based on E, consisting of the pitches E, F♯, G, A, B, C, and D. Its key signature has one sharp. Its relative major is G major and its parallel major is E major.


The E natural minor scale is:



{<br /> override Score.TimeSignature #'stencil = ##f<br /> relative c' {<br /> clef treble key e minor time 7/4 e4^markup "E natural minor scale" fis g a b c d e d c b a g fis e2 clef bass key e minor<br /> } }<br /> <br />


Changes needed for the melodic and harmonic versions of the scale are written in with accidentals as necessary. The E harmonic minor and melodic minor scales are:



{<br /> override Score.TimeSignature #'stencil = ##f<br /> relative c' {<br /> clef treble key e minor time 7/4<br /> e4^markup "E harmonic minor scale" fis g a b c dis e dis c b a g fis e2<br /> } }<br /> <br />



{<br /> override Score.TimeSignature #'stencil = ##f<br /> relative c' {<br /> clef treble key e minor time 7/4<br /> e4^markup "E melodic minor scale (ascending and descending)" fis g a b cis dis e d! c! b a g fis e2<br /> } }<br /> <br />


Much of the classical guitar repertoire is in E minor, as this is a very natural key for the instrument. In standard tuning (E A D G B E), four of the instrument's six open (unfretted) strings are part of the tonic chord. The key of E minor is also popular in heavy metal music, as its tonic is the lowest note on a standard-tuned guitar.
