I just caught somethings that don't mesh, but I'm not sure that's what you're referring to.
Durero's post has:

The
Chroma Institute's site has:
Code:
ba pa ke vi ga

And the

Even allowing for different solfege names for enharmonic equivalents, I still couldn't get them to sync-up.
Or are you talking about Anglo-Saxon/Germanic countries typically using A, B, C, etc. for "music" and the solfege names just for vocal training, whereas "Romance Countries" tend to use the solfege names for almost everything (e.g. "Beethoven's 9th symphony is in Re minor".)?
