E chords with alternative bass notes
E major chords for piano with alternative bass notes presented by keyboard diagrams.
Explanation: The slash in the chord name indicates that the second letter is added as a new bass note. E/D should therefore be read as E Major chord with a D note in the bass and E/C# as E Major chord with a C# note in the bass and so forth. Note that E/F and E/F# would also be possible to play using two hands without an inversion.
Theory: E/D is identical with the third inversion of E7, E/C# is identical with the third inversion of E6 and E/F# is identical with F#9sus4(no5).
