Whats the difference between piano melody,harmony,tempo and rhythm?10points for those who can enlighten me:>?
Melody is the “tune” – the part of the music you would sing along with. It’s a sequence or series of notes. Harmony is multiple pitches played at once — the most common example is chords. If you were listening to a singer with a guitar, the singer supplies the melody, and the guitar supplies the chords that form the harmony. A backup singer can also be harmony, if they are singing along on different pitches that complement the melody. Tempo means how fast the BEAT in a piece of music goes. If you “speed up” the tempo, you are really speeding up the beat underneath the music. Rhythm is the use of longer and shorter sounds. It’s the “chopping up time” element of music. A good repetitive rhythm can really get you grooving.
