Sarah Ann Glover

Sarah Anna Glover was an English music educator who invented the Norwich sol-fa system. It was based on the ancient gamut; however, she omitted the constant recital of the alphabetical names of each note and the arbitrary syllable indicating its key relationship, and also the recital of two or more such syllables when the same note was common to as many keys. The notes were represented by the initials of the seven syllables, C, D, E, F, S, L, T; still in use today as their names.
