What are the 7 solfege syllables?

A major or a minor scale (the most common scales in Western classical music) has seven notes, and so the solfege system has seven basic syllables: do, re, mi, fa, sol, la, and ti. In other octaves – for example, an octave above or below – the solfege syllables stay the same.

What are solfege exercises?

Solfège is an exercise used for sight-reading vocal music in which each scale degree is assigned a coordinating syllable.

What is the difference between Solfa and solfege?

Overview. The tonic sol–fa system is really more a system of notation than it is a solfège system. So while the system uses solfège syllables (and abbreviations of them), tonic sol–fa functions as a notation system complete with rhythm and meter.
