E♭ (musical Note)
E (E-flat) or mi bémol is the fourth semitone of the solfège. It lies a diatonic semitone above D (musical note), D and a chromatic semitone below E (musical note), E, thus being enharmonic to D (D♯ (musical note), D-sharp) or ''re dièse''. In equal temperament it is also enharmonic with F (F-double flat). However, in some musical temperament, temperaments, D is not the same as E. E is a perfect fourth above B♭ (musical note), B, whereas D is a major third above B (musical note), B. When calculated in equal temperament with a reference of A (musical note), A above middle C as A440 (pitch standard), 440 hertz, Hz, the frequency of the E above middle C (or E4) is approximately 311.127 Hz. See pitch (music) for a discussion of historical variations in frequency. In German nomenclature, it is known as Es, sometimes (especially in the context of motif (music), musical motifs, e.g. DSCH motif) abbreviated to S.

E-flat Major
E-flat major is a major scale based on E, consisting of the pitches E, F, G, A, B, C, and D. Its key signature has three flats. Its relative minor is C minor, and its parallel minor is E minor, (or enharmonically D minor). The E-flat major scale is: Changes needed for the melodic and harmonic versions of the scale are written in with accidentals as necessary. The E-flat harmonic major and melodic major scales are: Scale degree chords The scale degree chords of E-flat major are: * Tonic – E-flat major * Supertonic – F minor * Mediant – G minor * Subdominant – A-flat major * Dominant – B-flat major * Submediant – C minor * Leading-tone – D diminished Characteristics The key of E-flat major is often associated with bold, heroic music, in part because of Ludwig van Beethoven's usage. His ''Eroica Symphony'', ''Emperor Concerto'' and ''Grand Sonata'' are all in this key. Beethoven's (hypothetical) 10th Symphony is also in E-flat. B ...

E-flat Minor
E-flat minor is a minor scale based on E, consisting of the pitches E, F, G, A, B, C, and D. Its key signature consists of six flats. Its relative key is G-flat major (or enharmonically F-sharp major) and its parallel key is E-flat major. Its enharmonic equivalent, D-sharp minor, contains six sharps. The E-flat natural minor scale is: Changes needed for the melodic and harmonic versions of the scale are written in with accidentals as necessary. The E-flat harmonic minor and melodic minor scales are: Scale degree chords The scale degree chords of E-flat minor are: * Tonic – E-flat minor * Supertonic – F diminished * Mediant – G-flat major * Subdominant – A-flat minor * 'Dominant – B-flat minor * Submediant – C-flat major * Subtonic – D-flat major Music in E-flat minor In the 24 canonic keys, most of the composers preferred E-flat minor, while Johann Sebastian Bach, Sergei Lyapunov, and Manuel Ponce preferred D-sharp minor.

E-flat Tuning
Guitar tunings are the assignment of pitches to the open strings of guitars, including classical guitars, acoustic guitars, and electric guitars. Tunings are described by the particular pitches that are made by notes in Western music. By convention, the notes are ordered and arranged from the lowest-pitched string (i.e., the deepest bass-sounding note) to the highest-pitched string (i.e., the highest sounding note), or the thickest string to thinnest, or the lowest frequency to the highest. This sometimes confuses beginner guitarists, since the highest-pitched string is referred to as the 1st string, and the lowest-pitched is the 6th string. Standard tuning defines the string pitches as E (82.41 Hz), A (110 Hz), D (146.83 Hz), G (196 Hz), B (246.94 Hz), and E (329.63 Hz), from the lowest pitch (low E2) to the highest pitch (high E4). Standard tuning is used by most guitarists, and frequently used tunings can be understood as variations on standard tuning. To aid in memorisi ...

Trouble Funk
Trouble Funk is an American R&B and funk band from Washington, D.C. The group helped to popularize funk and the subgenre go-go in the Washington metropolitan area. Among the band's well-known songs is the go-go anthem "Hey, Fellas". They released several studio albums including '' Drop the Bomb'', '' In Times of Trouble'', ''Live'', and '' Trouble Over Here Trouble Over There'' (UK No. 54), and two live albums, ''Trouble Funk: Straight Up Go-Go Style'' and ''Saturday Night Live''. In 1982, they released a single "So Early in the Morning" on D.E.T.T Records, later reissued on diverse labels as 2.13.61 and Tuff City. Trouble Funk sometimes shared the stage with hardcore punk bands of the day such as Minor Threat and the Big Boys. Trouble Funk's song "Pump Me Up" was sampled by many other artists, including Dimples D.'s one-hit wonder " Sucker DJ", which went to No. 1 in Australia, Public Enemy's " Fight the Power", Kurtis Blow's song "If I Ruled the World" and M.A.R.R.S.'s ...

E-flat Clarinet
The E-flat (E) clarinet is a member of the clarinet family, smaller than the more common B clarinet and pitched a perfect fourth higher. It is typically considered the sopranino or piccolo member of the clarinet family and is a transposing instrument in E with a sounding pitch a minor third higher than written. The E-flat clarinet has a total length of about . In Italian, the term refers specifically to the E♭ clarinet, particularly in band scores. The term is also used, referring more generally to any small clarinet; in Italian scores, the E♭ clarinet is sometimes indicated as , e.g. the ''Fantasia Eroica'' op. 33 (1913) by . Until the late nineteenth century, the term also indicated a clarinet in E♭. The E clarinet is used in orchestras, concert bands, and marching bands, and plays a central role in clarinet choirs, carrying melodies that would be uncomfortably high for the B clarinet. Solo repertoire is limited, but composers from Berlioz to Mahler have used it ex ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
