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

"HAPPY"

The track is transcribed in the original key, E Major, and uses basic major and minor chords A G#m F#m B Bm C D♯. The harmony employs distantly related chords Bm C and has a modulated bridge that lasts only 4 measures.

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.

"Happy" is composed with a straight rhythm in common time.

Accent strong beats but do it softly.

The left-hand fulfills an accompanying role. Play any pattern (chords, arpeggios, tremolo, ostinato).

The right hand imitates the vocal delivery by Sungjin 성진: a predominant vocal style is staccato.

Pitch inflections (slurred notes) should be played softly but notice how deliberately Sungjin sings inflections.

The melody is build to surprise a listener, to attract and retain attention. It has a rapid flow with sudden changes of direction, expressive pauses, a recitative style.

The aesthetic value of a track is based on unconventional tonal behavior that adds movement and tension.
