- Let's start at the very beginning
- A very good place to start
- When you read you begin with
- Gretl
- 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
- Oh, let's see if I can make
- it easier...mmm...
- 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 brink us back to
- Do (oh oh oh...)
- Maria and children
- (Repeat the above twice)
- Maria
- Do Re Mi Fa So La Ti Do, So Do
Now children, Do Re Mi Fa So and so on are only the tools we use to build a song. Once you have these notes in your heads, you can sing a million different tunes by mixing them up. Like this...
- So Do La Fa Mi Do Re
- Can you do that?
- 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
- Good...
- Brigitta
- But it doesn't mean anything
- Maria
- So we put in words
- One word at every note, like this...
- When you know the notes to sing
- You can sing most anything
- Together!
- Maria and children
- When you know the notes to sing
- You can sing most anything
- Do Re Mi Fa So La Ti Do
- Do Ti La So Fa Mi Re
- Children
- Do Mi Mi, Mi So So, Re Fa Fa, La Ti Ti
- (Repeat this 4 times while Maria is singing)
- Maria
- When you know the notes to sing
- You can sing most anything
- Maria and children
