More song with solfege please. The melodies with solfege is starting to stuck in my head.
That’s really awesome! So glad to hear it. Yes will do more lessons on fingerstyle arrangement with solfege 😊 have you been practicing solfege daily?
@@neilchanmusic been practicing everyday now since I've watched your videos. I can now see the connection solfege has with musical pitch. I still have a long way to go. But your videos and practicing the songs have helped greatly! Thanks.
@@hgaubaul really happy to hear of your progress. Keep on working hard and it’ll be one of the best things you’ve worked on for your music journey. At least it was for me!

Amazing. A very big eye opener. Well-done bro.
Glad you liked it!
Wow, this is so great, thank you for sharing your knowledge :)
you're most welcome! happy to help you along. Have you used solfege before?
@@neilchanmusic I did, but I didn't know it was called solfege. And now, you're kind of helping me to connect all those pieces together. I hope I'll be able to thank you in the appropriate way one day. God bless you :)
@@miroslavkosanic2917 that’s really awesome! I’m glad it’s all starting to make sense for you. Do keep up the practicing, slow and steady, practicing daily 😊
Very helpful bro & thanks for the video 🎥
Eagerly waiting for more lessons on beginner fingerstyle 📝
Regards
Hey Aito, you're welcome! Do practice singing solfege along to basic scale exercises. good to start early!
❣
:)
Please do video about remember solfege in our heaf step by step teacher🙏it's so hard to singing solfege😭😅
It's hard, I fully agree with you! Lots of practice and perseverance is the trick :)
I was taught wrongly, by the note, sol. It was "so" all along hehehe now i know. Hehehd
Hey, there are different variations of the solfege names, and all are fine. What's important is the concept!
Thanks alot....How long will it take to practice to become very good at instantly transcribing Melody into solfege.
🇧🇷👍👏

hello niel, i've watched the whole video but i didn't quite understand how did you figured out the chord progression, but how did you figured out the chords?
sorry for the confusing question i'm binging your theory and solfege videos and just started learning it🤩
Glad you enjoy it! The chords usually fit with the melody. Find which is the most prominent melody note in that bar, and find a chord which has that melody note as one of the chord tones. There will be a few options, then you can try them out and choose the one that’s most suitable
@@neilchanmusic thanks neil! your solfege videos helped me figure out melodies, in the past months i can't even figure out the melody of happy birthday but then someday i just figured it out and i'm shocked, i think it's a miracle🤣
btw everyday i just sing the major scale and my goal is to feel or hear the scale degrees efficiently, so far i can only recognize the tonic and the 7th degree or "ti"
what ear training can you recommend so i can feel the scale degrees or how to get to your level when after hearing just a melody you'll be able to reproduce it in your head using solfege?
Just found your channel and subbed. I find it difficult to hear the solfege if there are no notes. Any ideas on how to improve?
hey thank you for the sub! it takes time so do be patient. i recommend finding easy songs eg. nursery rhymes and singing them in solfege instead of the lyrics. slowly your ear will be able to pick up solfege immediately. but be patient 🙂
@@neilchanmusic i saw that you also have some hymns that you sing. Any chance you would dub some in solfage ?
hey yes, I'm working on some new videos that will cover hymns. The upcoming hymn I'm working on is 'Be Thou My Vision'. I'll be releasing a video to walk you through solfege singing this hymn and arranging it on fingerstyle guitar! @@TheParasone
how a melody that u just hear becomes solfege in your head ....how one can master this please do tell ...thanks love ur videos
It takes time and lots of practice, just keep singing and playing scales in solfege. Sing and play the scales on guitar at the same time :) and try singing simple songs in solfege
@@neilchanmusic it would be quite a big undertaking, but if you could someday produce a video providing example songs for each mode, it would surely help you gain more subs! You're great - thanks so much, and keep it up!
Why does it start with sol instead of do ? Im confused
A melody can start from any scale degree, not always do!
Why so hard for me to remember sound fo solfege? 🥺😅
lots of practice is the key!
So all songs can be applied to major scale?
Not all, but majority of pop songs. Some songs are in minor, and a smaller minority in various modes.
@@neilchanmusic how to know wether the song use minor or major or any other?
@@naufalruzlan6271 You have to look at the notes and see if they fit in with the major or minor scales. The chords can tell you clues too
@@neilchanmusic oh i see... I actually have so many questions to ask you... I really want to make fingerstyle myself but im still a beginner. Your lessons help me sometimes but i still can't understand much... You really should make a discord server. Love from malaysia❤️
@@naufalruzlan6271 Happy to help you along through my videos. Sending blessings from neighbouring Singapore to Malaysia :)
Raagam 😅 is similar
Yes! Sa Ri Ga Ma Pa Da Ni :)
Hello Neil😊
I love your tutorials ❤ but will like to know what your practice routine was like when you were learning solfege for ear training sake
because to me Is looking like forever before this solfege thing becomes part of me😢
Await your quick response.
Hey glad you enjoy my videos! Solfege training is a process, so you do need lots of patience. Even today I’m still training and learning, it just takes time. I’m designing some courses to take you through exactly what I do to train this skill, stay tuned for them!
But for right now, keep doing scales while singing the solfege. Also try singing out the individual notes of chords in solfege. You need to design exercises to practice this to the metronome. Hope this helps!
