Hi, I am Rita. I transcribe sheet music since 2007. All my sheet music are accurate but simple, beginner-level transcriptions with lyrics (singing is good for mental health). Request any popular song in any genre and language.

"Dark Red"

The track is transcribed in the original key, G Flat Major, and uses basic and extended major and minor chords G♭ B♭ A♭m B7 Bmaj7 E♭ D♭ C♭ Am. The harmony employs distantly related chords.

The vocals are typed using a 𝄠 suboctave clef (the treble clef with the numeral 8 below it). Play the right hand one octave lower than written.

I doubled note values to make sightreading easier for beginners. The track isn't recorded in the 2/2 time.

"Dark Red" is composed with a straight rhythm in common time.

Accent strong beats but do it softly.

The right hand imitates the vocal delivery: a predominant vocal style is legato. Steve Lacy single with a lot of inflections.
