chord A harmonic progression that has three or more pitches sounding simultaneous. Countermelody. An accompanying melody sounded against the principal melody. Syllables (do, re, mi, fa, sol, la, ti) used to represent pitch classes in Western music traditions. Common Time (4/4) 4 beats per measure, quarter note gets the beat.
Do-Re-Mi" is a show tune from the 1959 Rodgers and Hammerstein musical The Sound of Music. Each syllable of the musical solfège system appears in the song's lyrics, sung on the pitch it names. La: a note to follow so, alludes to the sixth solfège syllable, la. Tea: a drink with jam and bread, alludes to the seventh solfège syllable, ti.
Thismeans that they have fewer syllables to learn- it's simply "Do, Re, Mi, Fa, So, La," and "Si" ("Ti" is usually only used in Movable "Do"). The reason why this system is more common comes back to the countries that use "Do, Re, Mi" as note names. A song in France may be in "Do-sharp minor". xw0ZG.
