Solfège is the system of assigning a syllable to notes on the scale like Do, Re, Mi. It is a topic that voice, violin, piano and other instruments often teaches in lessons but don't have enough time to truly dive into this technique. This group class is helpful to any student to improve their rhythm, note-reading, and ear training skills. It is especially beneficial to supplement your RCM exam studies.
