How can you understand which exact note a note is and which exercises should you do to help with that and what is the name of this exercise in solfeges?

Answer 1

The only possible letters that a note can be are ABCDEFG, they repeat in the same order no matter what clef or key you are in, the form of the note (natural, flat or sharp) can change but the order of the letters remains the same.

Another good way to help you remember note names is by associating words to the staff.

In treble clef all the notes from top to bottom on the spaces spell: FACE

In treble clef all the notes on the lines state the phrase: EGBDF (Every Good Boy Does Fine)

In bass clef all the notes on the spaces state the phrase: ACEG (All Cows Eat Grass)

In the bass clef all the notes on the lines state the phrase: GBDFA (Good Boys Do Fine Always)

The names of the solfege syllables will change depending on what key you are in.

ex. When in the key of C Major C = Do, D = Re, E = Mi, F = Fa, G = Sol,

A = la, B = Ti, C = Do.

When in the key of F major F = Do, G = Re, A = Mi, Bb (B flat) = Fa,

C = Sol, D = La, E = Ti, F = Do

etc...

Sight singing is a good way to start with music, not only does it help with pitch accuracy but it helps to memorize notes. You can sing the pitches on the solfege syllables or by using note names.

Also using staff paper with notes written out on it, with spaces underneath the staff to write in answers can help you test yourself on your memory.

This is just the basics, when you are ready to progress to key signatures and scales iI would recommend buying a theory book (I use Tonal Harmony) or trying to find a good theory tutor!

Improved answer:

To be able to determine which note is being played takes a skill that musicians call perfect pitch and it is not a talent everybody has. However there is a way of developing a concept called relative pitch. The way relative pitch works is that you have a pitch playing in your ear for a while (about a week). Then as you hear a note different from the note you remember hearing, you start humming the note you were "taught" and hum it. Eventually, you raise or lower your pitch until your pitch matches the one you hear. Then you count the number of half steps you moved and determine the note.

The solfege exercises, I don't know which one your talking about. The only one I know is the one that you sing:
