4 Ways to Harmonize the Same Melody - Music Composition
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 9 июл 2024
- How to harmonize a melody in four different ways. This music composition lesson begins by using diatonic chords to present two possible alternative harmonisations. We then move on to two further harmonisations using chromatic chords and more colour. Useful for anyone wanting to expand their chord skills or wanting to improve their skills of harmonic analysis.

This is simply gold. I don't understand how someone can dislike such content.
Thank you. Much more at www.mmcourses.co.uk including details of our online courses and of our exciting Maestros programme.
I'm not a composer and I never learnt any music theory, but this is the first video that talks about the topic of harmonisation in a comprehensive, well-rounded and logical way. Most other videos on youtube are very subjective and very hand-wavy, basically "Oh and this chord could sound nice now"
Great comment.

Just wonderful. Can't thank you enough for these videos and your excellent classes! You are a treasure.
Bravo! You've done a bunch of these harmony-melody videos and they are all unique and useful in their own ways. I don't think you are nearly at the bottom of the issue and I look forward to more!
Plenty more to come!
Amazing teacher, I can't compliment enough. What a great guy! Thank you! 🙏

I'd love to see a video on re-harmonising this G-Major melody by using one of the relative modes. ex. A-Dorian, C-Lydian
All possible
Very helpful examples that I can learn from for my own compositions. I took the „Music composition“ and „Writing counterpoint“ classes and the 4 harmonizations give me a different angle to look at. Thank you, Gareth!
A pleasure. The RUclips videos on our channel are designed to complement the courses on our website so it’s good to hear from you that this approach is working.
Looking good and healthier!
Nice video on harmonization, I sure hope these lessons reach out to songwriters.
Thanks for your support.

Quite a nice presentation.
I started looking at rule based harmonization a few decades ago. After learing just a little bit about it, my guitar teacher at the time said to start off by harmonizing a melody by ear first (I was starting to write songs) and then look for ways to modfiy the harmony, and the melody if necessary. He did not expand on that thought.
I can do this now, but harmonizing by ear does not have to be formally rule based. It is still a mystery to me how it works, but then a lot of things in this world are a mystery, none so much as the workings of the human brain, and in this case, the musical brain. So, many folks with no theoretical understanding can harmonize by ear only. The application of theory can come after the fact, if at all. Without notation, and/or a well-trained ear, it is very difficult to apply any rule-based harmonization at all.
Another thing that maybe needs a bit more explanation is chord velocity or harmonic rhythm. Where do you put you chords? How often do you change them? Do you only put chord changes on the beat? Do you change chords more slowly? This is an important issue.
Also, I sometimes read that you only need to really worry about vertical harmony (melody note and chord tone congruence) on the beats, or maybe more strongly stated, on the strong beats. Looking at a few example of real music, it did not seem that this was always true. So, what is an approach tone or auxilliary tone must depend on a prior decision as to which chord you are going to use. Also, if you use seventh chords and better yet extensions, then how do you define auxilliary tones? Is it always based on the triad form? These are things that the basic material I have read on harmonization does not cover.
Some melodies seem to contain measures that favour particular chords, and sometimes the notes seem more random, and harder to pin down for harmony.
As an amateur songwriter, I am still trying to up my game.
Obviously go with what sounds best. That always supersedes any ‘rules’. Think of the rules as guidance. On the issues of harmonic rhythm and the use of inessential notes & chord extensions we have videos on those topics. Keep composing!
best explanation ive seen about this topic! Thank you!

"I'm not trying to set the Thames on fire here." LOL! This was very helpful, thanks. Ironically over the past two days I was wrestling with just this issue on one of my bigger pieces. I could hear an echo of your voice from previous videos, talking about passing notes. So I paid a lot of attention to that while I was considering chord placement.

Just stumbled upon your videos. Exactly the kind of advice and teaching I’ve been looking for. I’m self thought hobbyist. I’ve tried to find these kind of more advanced theory videos. There are a lot of videos where composing process is shown but they don’t explain the theory and ideas behind the choices.

Before looking at your examples, I decided to take on the challenge to see what I could come up with. Mine follows your second example EXCEPT on beat 2 of the first measure, I went for a I 7b and for beat 4 of the first measure, I went with a secondary dominant, V 7b / ii. I love exercises like this. Thanks!
That’s great and of course there are many possibilities.
I like that there is a sense of calmness in your video 😊
Thank you
Great as always!

Thanks a lot for your expanation!!! I love to listen to music. I love the emotions it gives. But my ear is not as good for music as I would like. That's why I've not understand for many years what specialist talk about saying "harmonization". I read many articles about harmony but the material was really difficult for me (yes, simple things can be difficult🙃). And after watching your lesson I finally got it!!! Yes!!!! I'm so happy!

Hey, you said your name! Finally! Well done. Great info.
I’ve done it for a while now, following requests!
Hello Gareth, thanks a lot for such an excellent video and a learning resource. Hope you are doing well. We need hundreds of such videos from you.
Couple of points and requests:
1) Although the ideas and concepts will still remain the same, it would be really great to see the construction of harmonization for some longer pieces of melody (may be the prelude or chorus of some popular song, etc.) using the building blocks.
2) On the 4th way, you have used Cm. Clearly, it works - it creates tension that pulls towards resolution. But, it's important to know "why" it works. It would be great if you can cover this in one of your future videos. Also, perhaps equally important, what else "might" work as well.
We will take that on board. Much more at www.mmcourses.co.uk including details of our online courses and of our exciting Maestros programme.

Great job as usual Gareth. Best wishes from from Barnsley
Most kind. Great to hear from someone in Barnsley!
Thank you so much, Mr. Green. I have learnt a lot from your videos, over the past one year or so.
You have lost a lot of weight, Mr. Green. I sincerely hope it is on purpose and not due to illness. You have a large following, and we want only the best for you. You are a treasure, my friend. You are indeed an invaluable treasure. Sending love and goodwill, from Canada.
That is really lovely of you. Have no fear. The weight loss is entirely intentional. Thanks for your support.
@@MusicMattersGB Waoh, so relieved, congrats then!
Pray that all is well and you're healthy!
Absolutely fine thanks. Hope you are too.
This is a very good video. It is the job of the composer to bring out the essential color and beauty of the melody.
Many techniques are used. Another method is augmentation wherein shifting harmonies are employed over one note.
Bach's Chorales also offer great demonstrations how one melody can be rendered in different expressions.
Another pretty progression for the given melody may be: em - bm- C - G- II#3- V7--I.
This is the fun of music! Thanks for the video.
A pleasure. Yes, many different ways to tackle it.
Lookin' slim and trim, Gareth! As always, loving your content from Maryland, US!
Thanks for your support.
I came here to say the same thing. Well done Gareth I know what hard work it is to lose weight having lost 9.5 stone myself x
Well done you. That’s a fine achievement.
He has done an amazing job hasn't he?
Now we just need to get him off to the gym and trim the hair - then he will be the piano machine...

Great video as always. Apparently in Australia we also use the abc method of labelling inversions. I didn’t know this until recently as the only classical harmony book I had was by Walter Piston. I agree the British way is less confusing and quicker to understand. I might practice four part harmonisations by using melodies out of a Beatles song book and reharmonising them.
Yes. The abc system is used widely around the world. Some people know no other system while others have never encountered it. Reharmonising melodies is a very useful process.
This is great

Thanks Gareth 👏👏👏

A solid job on harmonizing under the melody.
I went for a different harmony approach using the second eighth of the passing notes as chord tones, with the melody note as 9th for the first chord and the 11th for the third chord, or, in guitarists' jargon, starting with a sus2 on the II chord resolving to the I chord, then a sus4 on the V chord (with a counter-motion from A to F# to avoid duplication) resolving to the III chord for the first bar.
However, what I really would have liked to see is how to harmonize a sung melody (with lyrics) to a set chord accompaniment (or possibly just the bass note and one or two extra notes, e.g. power chords aka hollow fifths, to leave room for ambiguous decoration in the upper (and maybe some lower) vocals also following some of those lyrics, or just counterpointing pieces of those lyrics.
It’s great that there are so many ways of harmonising.
Thank you for clear presentation. I have seen also piano roll editor instead of notation in the same purpose. I means that young composers want to make sounds direct to the virtual player. Not to real instruments.
I prefer this traditional way.
😀

Many thanks for your support Gary! That is much appreciated.
I really enjoy your videos. Please keep them coming! I have to convert the "a" b" "c" "d" system for inversions to figured bass in my mind, but I'm getting used to it. Is this system used in G.B. across the board for all harmonic analysis, even for advanced students, or is this more of "let's get started" method for beginners before they learn about secondary functions, etc. Your students are very fortunate! Thank you so much for taking the time to create and share these! You are a talented teacher!!
That’s great. Much more at www.mmcourses.co.uk
This is helping me learn to play rootless voicings in the baseline. Thx.
Excellent.
Yeah, this really got through to me. I’ll look to see if you have other lessons where you DO adhere to the chord root in the base and harmonize thusly. Thx again.@@MusicMattersGB
There are many videos covering this
@@MusicMattersGB Can’t wait.

Interesting video love it! Can I ask please how to identify the melody and harmony by looking at the score? Am I right that the notes of the melody is in the upper stave and the chords of harmony in the bass? Thanks as I often confuse between the two
Thanks. The melody is at the top. The chords are the notes going on below the melody.
