Coincido con mediamatrix en que la frase introducida por "on the same note" no tiene ninguna relación con la anterior, pero veo la conveniencia de enlazarlas para dar fluidez al texto. Esta fórmula me parece la mejor solución.

La traducción literal sería "en la misma nota", pero se trata de una expresión inglesa sin traducción directa, y el sentido es este.

This is obviously not native English - that is clear just from the first sentence.
And the sentence beginning with "On the same note..." in fact bears no relation whatsoever to the previous sentence. In other words, it is NOT 'on the same note'.
If you want your Spanish-speaking readers to understand this message, I suggest you skip over 'on the same note' and begin the second sentence with "Discúlpeme ..."

: I would include some translation of the phrase in this case, in order to reflect the natural speech tone of these sentences. "On the same note" is often misunderstood even by native English speakers and casually used incorrectly.

: asimismo hace pensar que la primera frase tiene el mismo tono que la segunda cuando una es de dar gracias y la otra es de pedir excusas. Pienso que la traduccion literal si es esa, pero en este contexto seria mejor por otra parte, por el contexto

: Even though the two sentences don't have much relation, I would use this term here to stay true to the original text. "On the same note" is often misunderstood even by native English speakers and casually used incorrectly.
