Keys and instruments in foreign languages
on: April 08, 2010, 02:32:06 AM
en Si.
Or it will say something like that.
Where's a good description of what that means exactly? I'm guessing that's a fixed solfege system?
And I know German has the h and B is really Bb. I think.
What's a good resource for identifying keys in other non-English languages?

This is why you google things before you post them on the internet right when you think of them.

It also keeps the info here. If I want it again, I know it's here. And it might be useful for someone else too.
