Music theory is the study of the fundamental elements and structures that make up music. It provides a set of rules and guidelines that musicians use to create, analyze, and interpret music.
Music theory covers a wide range of topics, including:
Compositional elements: Notes, chords, scales, key signatures, intervals, song form, and tempo
Musical qualities: Pitch, tone, timbre, texture, and dynamics
Staff: Treble and bass clefs, and ledger lines
Note duration: Five types of notes, flags, dots, and ties
Measures and time signature: How many notes each measure can contain
Rest duration: The different types of rest
Steps and accidentals: Half steps, whole steps, and different types of accidentals
Music theory has its origins in ancient civilizations, such as the Greeks, who developed a system of scales and modes. Musical notation was introduced in the Middle Ages, further refining music theory.

Solfege or Solfeggio (Italian solfeggio from the name of the notes "salt" and "fa") is an ambiguous musical term meaning:
educational discipline intended for the development of musical hearing and musical memory, including solfegging (solming), musical dictation, analysis by ear, exercise collections for single- or polyphonic solfaging or auditory analysis special vocal exercises for voice development, also called vocalizations.
