1828 Definition

SOLMIZA'TION, n. [from sol,mi, musical notes.] A solfaing; a repetition or recital of the notes of the gammut.

1913 Definition
Solmization (solmization)
n.(?)
Sol`mi*za"tion
[F. solmisation, fr. solmiser to sol-fa; -- called from the musical notes sol, mi. See Sol-fa.] (Mus.)
  1. The act of sol-faing.
    [Written also solmisation.]

    * This art was practiced by the Greeks; but six of the seven syllables now in use are generally attributed to Guido d' Arezzo, an Italian monk of the eleventh century, who is said to have taken them from the first syllables of the first six lines of the following stanza of a monkish hymn to St. John the Baptist. --

    Ut queant laxis
    Resonare fibris
    Mira gestorum
    Famuli tuorum
    Solve polluti
    Labii reatum,
    Sancte Joannes.

    Professor Skeat says the name of the seventh note, si, was also formed by him [Guido] from the initials of the two words of the last line; but this is disputed, Littré attributing the first use of it to Anselm of Flanders long afterwards. The syllable do is often substituted for ut.

Noah Says...
Language is not an abstract construction of the learned, or of dictionary makers, but is something arising out of the work, needs, ties, joys, affections, tastes, of long generations of humanity, and has its bases broad and low, close to the ground.
