Terminology Monophonic (unison) Monophonic music only has one musical part – the melody line – absolutely NO harmony or accompaniment. Examples of monophonic music: One person whistling A group singing someone ‘Happy Birthday’ without harmonies or instruments A solo instrument (like a trumpet) playing https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iT88jBAoVIM https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2fngvQS_PmQ

Terminology… Homophonic (block chords) Homophonic music has the melody and a supporting part providing accompaniment or fill chords. Examples of homophonic music: A singer accompanied by a guitar picking or strumming chords. A small jazz combo with a bass, a piano, and a drum set providing the ‘rhythm’ background for a trumpet solo. A person playing the bagpipes (where the drones provide the accompaniment.) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GsPq9mzFNGY

Terminology Polyphonic (different sounds or voices) Polyphonic music has parts that weave in and out of each other. There are more than one independent melody occurring at the same time. Examples of polyphonic music: A choir singing a round or canon (Row, Row, Row your Boat.) Most pieces of music for a large instrumental group (orchestra) Adding in a back-up singers or a second instrument playing harmony opposite to the melody. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fT4KjUwL3lE
