solfège (sôlfĕzh`) [Fr.] or solfeggio (sōlfĕd`jō) [Ital.], in music, systems of vocal exercises employing the solmization syllables of Guido d'Arezzo (ut, re, mi, fa, sol, la). Solfège has the dual purpose of vocalization and practice in sight reading. The term has often been used loosely to cover training in the various fundamentals of music.

| The past 10 years have been occupied by the development of what I call Harmonic Immersion Solfege. Students begin sight singing halfway through the Level One book using the "movable do" solfege method. While many systems and variations of solfege systems are in use today, three basic systems prevail in the United States: Fixed Do, Movable Do and La-Based Minor. |
