E

description

E is pitch class 4 — a major third above C (four semitones), and a natural letter-name. On the keyboard it is the white key between D♯/E♭ and F; in solfège it is often Mi.

It closes the first third of the octave counted from C and opens the path toward the fourth. As a pitch class it is stable naming: every E, in any octave, is this same step of twelve.

In major-triad grammar E is the root of E major (E–G♯–B), the major third of C major (C–E–G), and the perfect fifth of A major (A–C♯–E). Alone it stays a pitch class. A vessel offering needs three notes of a recognized major chord.

In The Work this face is a Music Note — collected from The Atlas and carried on its own map, apart from Tokens and Cards. Alone it stays a pitch class. Three notes that form a recognized major chord may open a vessel offering; arbitrary threes do not.
