Do Re Mi Song
Maria: 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
The first three notes just happen to be Do Re Mi
Do Re Mi Fa So La Ti~
Oh, let's see if I can make it easier...
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 bring us back to Do oh oh oh
Maria and children: (Repeat 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?
Maria: So Do La Ti Do Re Do~~~
Now, put it all together~!
So-do-la-fa-mi-do-re So-do-la-ti-do-re-do Good...
Brigitta: But it doesn't mean anything
Maria: So we put in words
One word for 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
