About “In A Week”
- Why does the accompaniment for "In A Week" show falling notes?
- Falling Notes makes each chord visual — colored notes drop onto the keyboard so you can FEEL the rhythm of the backing before each entry. Singers find it easier to lock in with the piano's groove when they see the chord notes land instead of just hearing them.
- What key is the piano accompaniment for "In A Week" by Hozier in?
- The backing track is in G at 130 BPM. If that doesn't sit in your vocal range, use the live transpose control to shift up or down semitones — the accompaniment moves with the new key automatically.
- Can I sing over "In A Week" with this accompaniment?
- Yes — that's exactly what it's built for. The vocal melody is muted by default so you can sing freely. Need a pitch reference? Tap the mic icon to bring the melody back in at a lower volume.
- Is this a karaoke version of "In A Week"?
- Effectively yes — it's the piano-only backing for "In A Week", with no vocals. You can also slow it down to practice tricky verses, then bring it back to full tempo.
- Can I use "In A Week" as a backing track for my instrument?
- Absolutely. Singers, guitarists, violinists, wind players, and instrumental practice in general all work — the piano holds the harmony so you can carry the melody on whatever instrument you play.
- Can I download the accompaniment for "In A Week"?
- Yes — registered users can download MIDI + MusicXML (open in any notation software). PDF sheet music is also available for the full arrangement.

- "In A Week" was originally performed by Hozier. This piano accompaniment is an arrangement of that song, designed for sing-along and play-along use.
- What other backing tracks by Hozier are available?
- Other accompaniments by Hozier: "Angel Of Small Death And The Codeine Scene", "Foreigner's God", "From Eden". Same toggle-the-melody, change-the-key setup.
- Can I use "In A Week" as a backing track for singing?
- Yes — this is the piano accompaniment for In A Week by Hozier, with the chord notes falling visually so you can see exactly when each chord lands. Original key is G; transpose live to fit your voice.
