Letand's start at the very beginning
a very good place to start
when you read, you begin with--
[little girl] a, b, c!
[maria] when you sing, you begin with do, re, mi
[children] do, re, mi
[maria] do, re, mi
the first three notes just happen to be
do, re, mi
[children] do, re, mi
[maria] do, re, mi, fa, so, la, ti--
[spoken] come, iand'll make it easy for you. listen:
[sung] 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
sew, a needle pulling thread
la, a note to follow so
tea, a drink with jam and bread
that will lead us back to do, oh, oh, oh
[with children] 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
sew, a needle pulling thread
la, a note to follow so
tea, a drink with jam and bread
that will lead us back to do
do, re, mi, fa, so, la, ti, do-- so-- do
[spoken] now, children, once you have these notes in your head, you can sing a
million tunes by mixing them up--like this:
[sung] so, do, la, fa, mi, do, re... [spoken] now you do it.
[children] so, do, la, fa, mi, do, re
[maria] so, do, la, ti, do, re, do
[children] so, do, la, ti, do, re, do
[maria, spoken] now letand's put it all together:
[sung by all] so, do, la, fa, mi, do, re
so, do, la, ti, do, re, do
[little girl] but it doesnand't mean anything!
[maria] so we put in words--one word for every note:
[sung] when you know the notes to sing
you can sing most an--y--thing. [spoken] together!
[sung by all] when you know the notes to sing
you can sing most an--y--thing
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
sew, a needle pulling thread
la, a note to follow so
tea, a drink with jam and bread
that will lead us back to do
do, re, mi, fa, so, la, ti, do-- so-- do
