While I would recommend Moveable Do -especially for beginners-įeel free to use whichever system works best for you. Play around with the piano above and see the differences between the two systems. C# Major with Moveable Do Do Re Mi Fa So La Ti Do C# Major with Fixed Do Di Ri Fa Fi Si Li Do DiĪs you can see the moveable do is instantly recognisable and by using this method you can identify the note by the level of tension it has. But lets compare the two methods in the key of C# Major. In C major the two systems are identical. In this system the solfege syllables are fixed: Do always equals C, Re always quals D, and Mi always equals E an so on. While some songs use undiatonic notes (notes that are not in the key), the majority of notes you will be playing or singing will be the familiar Do, re, mi. In particular I'd be interested to hear from anyone whose completed all the 'levels' and how it's helped them when. I was wondering if anyone else here uses it, and how they like it. Ti will always be tense and want to resolve to the tonic Do. This is an app available for ios, android, and computer that plays a cadence, plays a note in the scale, and asks you to identify it. In this method whatever key you are playing in all the tones will have the same tension.ĭo will always sound resolved - like home. In the key of D Major: Do = D, Re = E, Mi = F# e.tc. In the key of A major: Do = A, Re = B, Mi = C# etc. In this system the solfege syllables are relative to the key. There are two main ways of implementing solfege. Solfege in the Chromatic Scale Do Di Re Ri Mi Fa Fi Sol Si La Li Ti Do Solfege in the Major Scale Do Re Mi Fa Sol La Ti Do The solfege system assigns mono-syllables to each of the scale tones.
