The Guidonian Hand… The Origin of Solfege (note “syllables”)
6
Why a hand? Lack of resources: Sheep were too valued to be used for parchment (wool clothes, milk, cheese, meat > paper) Copies were incredibly hard to make Same group of singers for every church service = lots to learn! Lack of ability: Not everyone could read, even if they had parchment. Music was not notated in any standard way = Easier to teach!
