Sing chords
Scales

Remembering rhythmic patterns
The program is portable. Versions of Solfege has ran on recent releases of Debian, Redhat, Mandrake, SuSE, FreeBSD 4.2, MS Windows 95/98/2000/XP and MacOSX. It should be easy to make the program run on any unix like operating system, for example Solaris or BeOS, if you have gtk+, python and pygtk installed. The old MacOS will not work because gtk+ and pygtk is not ported to that OS.
GNU Solfege is free software, and is a part of the GNU Project.

pygnome >= 2.0
Python 2.3
