Just do not say that you knew it without this post !!!

The inventor of the modern system of musical notation is the Benedictine monk Guido Aretinsky (Guido d'Arezzo), who lived in 990-1050. in the small town of Arezzo, not far from Florence. In the monastery there, Brother Guido taught choristers how to perform church chants.

    Guido Aretinsky began to mark sounds with notes (from the Latin word "nota" - sign). The notes — the shaded squares — were placed on a staff of four parallel lines. Guido used red, black and yellow lines. Thus, he created a clear and intuitive musical alphabet.

    Now there are five of these lines, and the notes are depicted in circles, but the principle itself, introduced by Guido, remained unchanged. There are seven notes, they form an octave. Higher notes are displayed on a higher ruler.

    The notes had to be named somehow. To make it easier to remember the names of the sounds, Guido ordered his students-choirists to learn a hymn in honor of St. John the Baptist.

    This hymn is a petition to Saint John, the patron saint of singing, to help the voices of the singers who will praise the Lord to sound harmonious, beautiful and without hoarseness. Literal translation: "So that your wonderful deeds can be sung on relaxed strings, resolve the sin of the defiled lips, Saint John."

    For this prayer, Guido composed a new melody, in which each subsequent line of poetry began one step higher than the previous one. And every first syllable of a new line became the name of a new note:

"UT queant laxis

REsonare fibris

MIra gestorum

FAmuli tuorum

SOLve polluti

LAbii reatum Sancte Ioannes! "

    So the notes got their first name: Ut, Re, Mi, Fa, Sol, La - after the initial syllables of the first six words of the prayer to St. John.

    Almost five hundred years later, the Ut note was replaced by the Do note, because it is easier to sing, it is more harmonious. Some scientists believe that the note Do got its name from the word "Dominis" - the Lord, and according to another version, this word "I give" is translated from Latin. Some believe that the note Before about 1540 was introduced by the musician J. Doni, taking the first letters of his surname.

     Later, the note C was added (Si - or Ti in English-speaking countries). It is believed that it got its name from the initials of St. John (Sancte Ioanes) and was introduced by H. Valrant in 1574.

    By inventing notes, Guido taught the singers this peculiar alphabet, and also taught them to sing from the notes. In modern music schools this is called solfeggio. Now it was enough to write down the entire mass in notes, and the singers could already sing the necessary melody themselves. There was no longer the need to teach everyone each song personally - Guido only had to control the process. As a result, the training time for singers was reduced by five times: instead of ten years - two years. Guido Aretinsky's square notes, placed on the four lines of the staff, turned out to be the simplest and most convenient system for recording music, thanks to which musical notation spread throughout the world.

     This is how the only international language on earth appeared - the language of music, which is now understood by all musicians of the world: DO — RE — MI — FA — SOL — LA — SI.
