E Neapolitan Major Pentatonic

E · G♯ · A · B♭ · D

An unusual five-note set built from the root, major third, fourth, flat fifth, and flat seventh, E Neapolitan Major Pentatonic pairs a major third with a diminished fifth for a strikingly ambiguous sound. It works as an angular alternative over altered dominant chords. Very much a specialist colour for jazz, fusion, and modern composition.
