Universal Solfege was invented by [[User:Nick Vuci|Nick Vuci]]. It builds on [[Margo Schulter|Margo Schulter's]] [https://www.bestii.com/~mschulter/IntervalSpectrumRegions.txt "Regions of the Interval Spectrum"] to create a systematic solfege which can be applied to a variety of microtonal scales.

The principle is that we can divide the interval spectrum into discreet areas which can then be used to take subsets for most microtonal scales we can imagine. It's not an exhaustive solution but a practical and practicible one.

While the chart gives solfege syllables for 59 distinct intervals, the entire gamut is not meant to be used in one instance. Instead it is meant to be used via selection of a subset relevant to a main scale.
