What is the solfège for sharps?
In moveable-do solfège, the usual practice is to indicate sharps with an -i vowel and flats with an -e or -a vowel. For example, a sharp do becomes di, flat sol becomes se, and flat re becomes ra.
What are sharps and flats in solfège?
When we raise solfege notes (sharps), we change the vowel sound to “ee.” When we lower solfege notes (flats), we change the vowel sound to “ae” or “ah.”
What are the 7 solfège 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 the solfège names?
Fortunately the answer is simple: do, re, mi, fa, sol, la, and ti (or si) are simply the note names C, D, E, F, G, A and B in French and Italian! Worldwide, the solfège system is used for singing notes.
