Tonic Sol-fa –

Curwen taught himself to sight-read based on Glover's Norwich Sol-fa, made alterations and improvements, and named his method Tonic Sol-fa.

In the Tonic Sol-fa the seven letters refer to key relationship ( relative pitch ) and not to absolute pitch.

The Standard Course of Lessons on the Tonic Sol-fa Method of Teaching to Sing was published in 1858.

Curwen also began publishing, and brought out a periodical called the Tonic Sol-fa Reporter and Magazine of Vocal Music for the People, and in his later life was occupied in directing the spreading organization of his system.

In 1872, Curwen changed his former course of using the Sol-fa system as an aid to sight reading, when that edition of his Standard Course of Lessons excluded the staff and relied solely on Curwen's Tonic Sol-fa system.

Curwen technically did not invent Tonic Sol-fa.
