EMoll, also known as E moll in German, refers to the musical key of E minor. It is one of the diatonic minor keys, built on the sixth degree of the G major scale. The natural E minor scale consists of the notes E, F#, G, A, B, C, and D. The harmonic minor scale raises the seventh degree, making it E, F#, G, A, B, C, and D#. The melodic minor scale raises both the sixth and seventh degrees ascending, resulting in E, F#, G, A, B, C#, and D#, while descending it reverts to the natural minor scale. EMoll is a common key in classical music, often associated with melancholic or somber moods. Many famous compositions are written in EMoll, including pieces by composers like Bach, Mozart, and Beethoven. Its relative major key is G major. The dominant chord in E minor is B major (or B dominant seventh), and the subdominant chord is A minor. The tonic chord is E minor. The key signature for E minor (natural) is one sharp, indicating an F#.
