Solfeggio was brought back into prominence as researchers and educators discovered the brain's ability to connect more easily with pitch relationships when a syllable was attached. It is crucial to associate a placement of tone before ever identifying its note name on the staff. Since solfeg gives a name to each note of the scale, children can learn the sound 'MI-SOL' by singing it without having to think about a written note.
They can recognize the sound of this interval before knowing that it is a minor third or that it contains three half steps or that it can be written e-g on the staff. Thus, solfeggio is a powerful teaching concept because it implies 'experience precedes learning'.
