Circle 3
Notes can be arranged by skipping two steps.
These sequences of fourths comprise the third cycle.
Knowledge of these sequences helps to read melodies that “skip” along the Grand Staff and aids with chord inversion.
It is much easier to memorize the fourths-fifths cycle of tonality and the positioning of flats and sharps.
1. Printout the picture of the circle 3
2. Learn to say all rows of circle 3:

Ti Mi La Re Sol Do Fa Ti – Ti Fa Do Sol Re La Mi Ti
Mi La Re Sol Do Fa Ti Mi – Mi Ti Fa Do Sol Re La Mi
La Re Sol Do Fa Ti Mi La – La Mi Ti Fa Do Sol Re La
Re Sol Do Fa Ti Mi La Re – Re La Mi Ti Fa Do Sol Re
Sol Do Fa Ti Mi La Re Sol – Sol Re La Mi Ti Fa Do Sol

3. Keep practicing circle 1 and 2.
All other combinations of notes are derived from these three sequences, known as musical inversions.As you can see, learning the Music Alphabet, even without singing it, is a very important aid to music development. The alphabet is a matrix for the voice and hearing, a foundation for quick reading from sheet music, and the framework for understanding music theory. This is the concentrate of the entire system of music. Learning the language of music without it is much harder.
With the aid of the alphabet, music sounds can be perceived on a stable level similar to that of human speech. The person gets used to not only hearing sounds, but also to guessing their names. The sounds that we hear are gradually decoded into their names and symbols (notes), which we can sing, play, and write down on paper.
