Hi, all:

Related to French/English musical translation, my wife, a teacher, is facing some difficulties right now in teaching solfeggio music to students in our newly integrated French/English classes.
The basic problem has been the difficulty faced with the fact that the French system has a non-moveable "doh" (the note, not the Homer Simpson exclamation), ie., "doh" is always the note C, whereas "doh" in English vocal music moves with the key.

Makes for some difficulties with nomenclature.

David
