E Minor
Em is made of 3 notes: E, G and B. Here it is in root position, with E at the bottom.
Inside Notley Piano: all the inversions of Em, fingering for both hands, a play button, and practice that helps you remember it.
| Note | Degree | Interval from E |
|---|---|---|
| E | 1 | root |
| G | b3 | minor 3rd |
| B | 5 | perfect 5th |
A minor chord sounds darker and more serious than major. The only difference from major is the 3rd, which drops by one fret (a half step).
