Let's start at the very beginning
A very good place to start
When you read you begin with - A - B - C
When you sing you begin with DO - RE - MI
DO - RE - MI , DO - RE - MI
The first three notes just happen to be DO - RE - MI
DO - RE - MI
DO - RE - MI - FA - SO - LA - TI...
(Oh let's see if I can make this easier)
DO - a deer, a female deer
RE - a drop of golden sun
MI - a name, I call myself
FA - a long long way to run
SO - a needle pulling thread
LA - a note to follow SO
TI - a drink with jam and bread
That will bring us back to do oh oh oh
Doe! - a deer, a female deer
Ray! - a drop of golden sun
Me! - a name I call myself
Far! - a long long way to run
So! - a needle pulling thread
La! - a note to follow SO
Tea - a drink with jam and bread
That would bring us back to do!
A deer, a female deer
RE, a drop of golden sun
MI, a name, I call myself
FA, a long long way to run
SO, a needle pulling thread
LA, a note to follow SO
TI, a drink with jam and bread
That would bring us back to do...
DO - RE - MI - FA - SO - LA - TI - DO! - SO - DO!
Maria: Now children , do re mi fa and so on are only the tools we use to build a song. Once you have these notes in your head you can a sing a million different tunes by mixing 'em up. Like this...ah...:
SO - DO - LA - FA - MI - DO - RE
Can you do that?
SO - DO - LA - FA - MI - DO - RE
SO - DO - LA - TI - DO - RE -DO
SO - DO - LA - TI - DO - RE - DO
Maria: Now put it all together...
SO - DO - LA - FA - MI - DO - RE
SO - DO - LA - TI - DO - RE - DO
Maria: Good!
Brigitta: But it doesn't mean anything.
Maria: So we put in words, One word for every note, like this:
When - you - know - the - notes - to - sing
You - can - sing - most - a-ny-thing
Maria: Together!
When you know the notes to sing
You can sing most anything!
