Fascinating! But surely it creates some misunderstandings ...



Ah no Sam, you must be thinking of playing with a bunch of French speaking guys who use the 'Sound of Music' notation.

Lets just take a quick look at this:
C = do
D = re
E = mi
F = fa
G = sol
A = la
B = si

...not to mention sharp and flat, which are of coure, diese and bémol

So when someone yells 'C' at you, you have to hit a B chord.
