E Sharp?

Google tells me it's F Natural.

I find it highly unlikely that the only music genre to ever feature a I III progression in A is jazz.

Notes like E# happen all the time in classical and it's not even limited to single flats or sharps. There are plenty of classical pieces where some notes might have double flats (bb) and in fact for double sharps there is even special notation (x is used instead of ##; no idea why double flats are still just notated bb though).

Don't let your wife see that search history...

Google lies.

E♯ isn't the same as F♮ any more than A♯ is the same as B♭.
They're not even the same frequency in Pythagorean tuning.

...also, those F's aren't natural.

Bing gets it right.

They're not even the same frequency in Pythagorean tuning.

There is actually a somewhat recent study (https://www.nature.com/articles/s41467-024-45812-z) suggesting that slightly imperfect ratios are preferable to pure Pythagorean tuning.

on a piano keyboard, where is e#?

One key to the right of E. That's how you sharpen a note - you move 1 to the right.

Move to the left and it's a flat. Try this with F or C and blow your mind

So E# is the same key as G double flat.

It's right there, it's the left side of the F key. the LEFT side.

It's the white key to the left of the F## key.

That depends. Is it a well-tempered clavier, or meantone?

You could argue that none of the notes are really on a piano keyboard, except for C.
And even C hasn't actually been C since 1936.

It's just a jump to the left....

[Uncle E]

And then a step to the right…
