The melody in music

The melody of the song is often the most recognisable part. Most compositions have multiple melodies that repeat.

Two primary elements of a melody:

  1. Pitch is how high or low a note will sound.
  2. Rhythm is the duration of each pitch.

There are two types of melodic motion that musicians combine to give melodies more variation:

  1. Conjunct motion is when notes move by whole or half steps with shorter leaps between the notes.
  2. Disjunct motion has larger leaps between the notes.
