👧🏻 Hi, I am Rita. I transcribe piano scores for popular music. My sheet music are accurate but playable transcriptions with lyrics and harmonic chords.

😔 Alas, at the request of the track's copyright holder, the minimum price is $3.

💰 How to pay $1.5? I want as much people as possible to play my sheet music. I can create a 50 % discount for a "bundle" of 2+ files. Contact me in the comments down below (↓). Also you can get ¢50 back for a review and $1 back for a video.

“Next Semester” Sheet Music

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

Remember that the notation system was not intended to represent the sound of modern rock music with its layered vocal, computer-generated sounds, and inflections of modern electronic guitar. My piano sheet music can only show you the score within the boundaries of the twelve-note scale and a metered rhythm; alas, the pitch and rhythm have little to do with the aesthetic value of the track. Listen to the song before practicing to fully imitate the beauty of the song: its timbre, phrasing, inflections. Play the song, not sheet music. Sing a phrase before playing it on your keyboard.

Imitate the vocal delivery by Tyler Joseph or it won't sound as the song. The vocal part is rhythmic, relatively rigid and precisely timed, so it produces not much of a melody for the right hand. The melodic line is built on repetition of one note. The composition lacks intervallic saturation thus its artistic meaning and expression suffer.

Places of an indefinite pitch I notated as chanting on the tonic note.

The "Ooh"s should be barely heard.

A predominant vocal style is speech-like staccato and semi-legato in the chorus.

Notice eights tremolo in the left hand. You can play it (repeating eights notes) or you can omit playing repeated eights.

"Next Semester" is played with a straight rhythm in common time. It is easy to count for beginners; accent strong beats to maintain a steady pulse. Practice slowly along with the recording.

I omitted the long and messy outro. It's a boring and uneventful swinged improvisation.

A single vocal line accompanied by an instrumental part constitutes the entire musical texture. "Next Semester" has a semi-improvised, loosely organized and wandering melody and homophonic arrengement: the instrumental part provides a harmony to support the vocal but lacks its own melody.

"Next Semester" is transcribed in the original key, A Major in the verses and E Major in the chorus, and uses power chords A G D E B. Power chords make sound neither major nor minor, you can't say is it a sad or a happy song.

The underlying harmony lacks motion and is fundamentally static: there is no sense of harmonic progression, only a pedal tone on A G D E B. Its only use is to mark time.

The aesthetic value of a melodic line is achieved through the use of dissonance that adds movement and tension.
