Music Transcription by John ZechielHello, and welcome to Zechiel Music Transcription.  My name is John Zechiel, and if you are looking for someone to transcribe music, you've come to the right place.  Music transcription is listening to music from cassette tape, CD, MP3 or WAV and then notating that music onto paper.  Transcribing music is exactly what I can do for you.  You can contact me at and I will be more than happy to help you.  I specialize in transcribing lead lines for singers, however I'm happy to transcribe instrumentals as well.  I can also arrange your music for piano.

Send me your music for an immediate quote.  The cost is based upon the complexity and duration of the music.  The bulk of the music I have transcribed falls within the $60.00 to $150.00 range, with the least expensive being $30.00 and the most $300.00.  Using Finale music notation software, I will deliver to you professional sheet music on either standard letter or legal size paper, or as a PDF file (requires Adobe Reader) that you can have published or duplicated.  I can also take your hand written score and produce a professional sheet music copy for a very reasonable price.

For your (and my) convenience I prefer  for payment, however I can accept checks and money orders.

I should point out that I have perfect pitch, and I will transcribe exactly what you send me, so be sure that the recording is of the best quality possible.

Selected Customer Quotes:

"The transcription is really excellent - note perfect to my ear.  Thank you so much for affording me the chance to add this to my repertoire.  I was disappointed after being told by both the record company and publishers that this sheet music was permanently out of print.  I'm therefore thrilled to get hold of what is undoubtedly an arrangement far superior to what they could have offered anyway..."

"Excellent transcription John, just what I wanted.  You have a fantastic ear.  I know where to come for any future transcriptions I require.  Many thanks."

"I absolutely love how the music turned out!  Particularly oritsuzuku ame no machi de (in this city of endless rain), it played out exactly as I hoped it would.  I've gone through both songs and there doesn't seem to be any problems with the transcription.  I'm definitely looking forward to the next two pieces I asked you for!  Much thanks..."
