Noun
- a method of [[sight singing]] [[music]] that uses the syllables ''[[do]]'' (originally ''[[ut]]''), ''[[re]]'', ''[[mi]]'', ''[[fa]]'', ''[[sol]]'' (or ''[[so]]''), ''[[la]]'', and ''[[si]]'' (or ''[[ti]]'') to represent the pitches of the [[scale]], most commonly the [[major scale]]. The ''fixed-do'' system uses ''do'' for [[C]], and the ''movable-do'' system uses ''do'' for whatever [[key]] the melody uses (thus B is ''do'' if the [[piece]] is in the key of B).
Verb
- To sing a sol-fa
