solfeggio

Do-re-mi practice

Solfeggio is a system for teaching sight-singing and ear training using syllables to represent musical notes: do, re, mi, fa, sol, la, si (or ti).

Students learn to recognize intervals and sing melodies by associating each pitch with its syllable.

The term also refers to vocal exercises using these syllables: She practiced her solfeggio before the audition.

Also called solfège.
