Do-Re-Mi
"Do-Re-Mi" is a show tune from the 1959 Rodgers and Hammerstein musical ''The Sound of Music''. Each syllable of the musical solfège system appears in the song's lyrics, sung on the pitch it names. Rodgers was helped in its creation by long-time arranger Trude Rittmann who devised the extended vocal sequence in the song. The tune finished at #88 in AFI's 100 Years...100 Songs survey of the top tunes in American cinema in 2004. Background Within the story of ''The Sound of Music'', it is used by the governess Maria to teach the solfège of the major musical scale to the Von Trapp children, who learn to sing for the first time. According to assistant conductor Peter Howard, the heart of the number — in which Maria assigns a musical tone to each child, like so many Swiss bell ringers — was devised in rehearsal by Rittmann (who was credited for choral arrangements) and choreographer Joe Layton.
