Melody and accompaniment. Accompaniment = rhythmic & harmonic support.

Single melodic line.

Melody and accompaniment. Accompaniment = rhythmic & harmonic support.

Also homorhythmic – similar rhythm in all parts. Hymnic, may not have melody

Textual ElementsSecondary Melody (SM) A melodic line that is

not as important as the PM.

Page 22: Texture

Textual ElementsParallel Supporting Melody (PSM)

Melodies similar in contour to PM, often keep a parallel interval relationship.

Textual ElementsParallel Supporting Melody (PSM)

Melodies similar in contour to PM, often keep a parallel interval relationship.

Textual ElementsStatic Supports (SS)

Sustained chords, pedal tones, repeated melodic or rhythmic figures.

Textual ElementsHarmonic and Rhythmic Support (HS, RS, HRS)

Textural elements that support the melody rhythmically, harmonically, or both.
