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.

More Sting

"I Wrote Your Name (Upon My Heart)"

The track is transcribed in the original key, A Major, and uses basic major and minor chords A C Em D E Bm. C and Em are non-harmoinc chords, the saddest part of the progression.

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 Wrote Your Name (Upon My Heart) " is composed with a funky groove in common time.

The accent goes on pickup.

Learn the left hand first and avoid learning both hands together in the very beginning. Patience is a virtue. Otherwise you will fail immediately and abandon the score.

The left-hand maintains movement with groovy ostinato.

The right hand imitates the vocal delivery by Sting: a predominant vocal style is semi-staccato.

Pitch inflections at the end of words (slurred notes) should be played quietly.

Focus on precise rhythm.

The aesthetic value of a track is based on variety and repetition: the same verse is repeated with a different melody and/or the same melody is repeated with a different harmony.
