Gamut

(găm'ut.) [From Gr. gamma, the third letter of the alphabet, and L. ut, a note in music.) (Mus.) The scale or tabular arrangement of notes made by Guido d'Arezzo, and marked by the monosyllables ut, re, mi, fa, sol, la, si, do; do has been since substituted for ut, as being more musical. In modern music, the G. is understood to mean the diatonic scale, and it is also sometimes applied to the note G below the ba -clef. [s. 394]
