E Major's four sharps (F♯, C♯, G♯, D♯) give it a rich, powerful sound. It's the natural key of the guitar, which means many rock and pop classics were originally written here. On piano, E Major requires confident use of black keys, making it intermediate territory — but the sonic payoff is worth the effort.
