Question
This sound may have been named after a Florentine humanist who modified a system developed by Guido of Arezzo from the hymn “Ut queant laxis” (“oot QUEE-awnt LAK-sees”). A system developed in Norwich inspired John Curwen to describe this sound as “firm.” In the Kodály (“koh-DIE”) method, this sound is represented by a closed fist. In contrast to movable systems, fixed systems named for this sound set it to the tonic of a C major scale. This sound is the first title word of a song from The Sound of Music, in which Maria follows a homophone of this sound with the lyric “a deer, a female deer.” For 10 points, name this first syllable in the solfège (“SOLE-fezh”) system, where it precedes re (“ray”) and mi ■END■
ANSWER: do (“doh”) [accept movable do or fixed do; prompt on C until “C major” is read by asking “What sound is used to represent the note C?”]
