Synopsis

A music text book designed to transition the music theory or ear training student from alphabet notation (a, b, c, etc.) to the more internationally used solfege notation (do, re, mi, etc.). Initially written for use at The Juilliard School, this text is designed to allow the student to instantly recognize solfege notation in both fixed-do and moveable-do solfege. Exercises are presented in treble, bass, grand staff, and all the "do" clefs. Sections on the history of solfege and tonic solfa are included.

About this title

From the Publisher

Reading Exercises for Solfege is the new "standard" in theory / ear training books on the subject of transitioning students from alphabet to solfege notation. It is easy to understand and the results from student use have been excellent.

From the Author

My own music education had been exclusively alphabet notation, and when I began my studies at Juilliard, I had the need to use solfege notation. These are the exercises I wrote for myself to use. Simply...they worked.
