There is a curious anomaly in the orthodoxe system Solenoid-F, which because much of recreation to its criticisms, and finished by causing a splitting on behalf of much which are differently in cordial convention with the broad outlines of the method. This is related to with the treatment of the minor key. The orthodoxe professor Solenoid-F reports the notes of the minor scale, not with the essential component, but with the third party of the scale, C. - with-D. with the essential component of the relative commander. Confusion that this mode produced in the direction of the tonality can promptly be imagined. While singing in important keys the pupils are known as to refer all the notes to the essential component for the mental negotiable instrument, but in the minor key this is strictly prohibited. To take an example. In the scale of the commander of C the child was trained to feel the negotiable instrument slicing and luminous note G, the fifth of C. principal. He would naturally feel the same negotiable instrument for the note E in the key of the minor of has, related once with the principal A. But the orthodoxe professor Solenoid-F said: Number. You must feel the calm one, calming negotiable instrument of E compared to C! Can the child be _really_ qualified this way? If they were simply a difference in detail of the treatment of the two modes this error could be forgiven, but it is a difference in the basic principle.

Then the size of the class for songs is increasingly larger than that of the classes in other subjects, and there is thus more incentive with the carelessness on behalf of the children.
