Pitch names are the first seven letters of the English Alphabet that is used in music to know what key will you press in the piano keyboard.

The steps in a major scale can be numbered from 1 to 8. The "do re mi" solfege system coincides with the steps of a major scale in the same way:

1 do

2 re

3 mi

4 fa

5 so

6 la

7 ti

8 do

As the first and last notes of a major scale are the same (only an octave apart), so is the solfege syllable (do).

___________________________________________

I assume you are asking about letter names of notes. do, re, mi, fa, sol, la, ti (or si), and do can be any letter name. If do is C, then:

IF "do" = C.... Then,

re = D

mi = E

fa = F

sol = G

la = A

ti = B

do = C

THIS CAN CHANGE if "do" is a different letter.

IF "do" = E Flat..... Then,

re = F

mi = G

fa = A Flat (Ab)

sol = B Flat (Bb)

la = C

ti = D

do = E Flat (Eb)

"do" can be any letter, but then it changes all of the other letters.

The syllables-do-re-mi-fa-sol-la-ti-do- (think 1-2-3-4-5-6-7-8) have a set pitch if you know the key of the music. These sol-fa names are for singing. The scale degrees are: Tonic (keynote) do 1 Supertonic re 2 Mediant mi 3 Subdominant fa 4 Dominant sol 5 Submediant la 6 Subtonic (leading tone) ti 7 Tonic do 8 (1) octave Key of C major = pitches C to C Key of D Major = D to D and so on.

In music, solfège (pronounced /'soʊlfɛʒ/, also called solfeggio, sol-fa, or solfa) is a pedagogical solmization technique for the teaching of sight-singing in which each note of the score is sung to a special syllable, called a solfège syllable (or "sol-fa syllable").

The seven syllables normally used for this practice in English-speaking countries are: do, re, mi, fa, sol, la, and ti (with a chromatic scale of ascending di, ri, fi, si, li and descending te, le, se, me, ra).

so-fa syllables often can refer to any scale/key, where Do is the starting note. people who learn so-fa as note names where a scale can start on something other than Do usually learn Do as being what is referred to as "C", re-mi-fa-so-la-ti as D-E-F-G-A-B.

Though originally, Do did just mean the starting note of any scale, even if many people are taught that Do is always the white key [for example] on a keyboard just before the two isolated black keys. On the other hand, C is always the same note on the lines in which you write music - the note just above the middle line in treble clef, for example.

It sounds different on instruments of different keys, so if a French Horn plays a C, it will sound different from a violin playing a C, as music for horn is in orchestral F-major, and music for the violin is in relative C-major.

Depending on what school of thought you ascribe to, the Solfège system can be fixed to specific pitches or movable.

In Fixed Solfège, syllables are permanently fixed (tied) to specific scale pitches, for example, "Do" will always mean "C-natural":

C | D | E | F | G | A | B| C

1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 | 8

Do|Re|Mi|Fa|So|La|Ti|Do

In Movable Solfège, syllables are relative and therefore "move" with the key you are working in:

C Major

A B C D E F G A B C D E F G A

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8

Do Re Mi Fa So La Ti Do

G Major

A B C D E F G A B C DE F# G A

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8

Do Re Mi Fa So La Ti Do

1

2
