Music Harmony Lessons - How to Harmonize Repeated Notes - Music Composition

Many people struggle to know how to harmonize repeated notes. This music composition explores three strategies for dealing with such situations by harmonising the same note repeated six times. The first strategy is to consider the three diatonic chords that fit with the given note. The second strategy is to consider how to balance root position chords with inversion chords. The third strategy is to consider how to decorate the harmony with inessential notes and suspensions. A combination of these approaches ensures that repeated notes in the melodic line do not result in static harmony and a lack of progression. ⬇️Download the files https://drive.google.com/file/d/1Xu4tj35i6i78oOIAeP-8OkZ0NcW9vmnE/view?usp=sharing 🔴 Subscribe for more videos just like this: http://www.youtube.com/channel/UC8yI8P7Zi3yYTsypera-IQg?sub_confirmation=1 🎵 Become a Music Matters Maestro: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC8yI8P7Zi3yYTsypera-IQg/join 👕 Merch store: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC8yI8P7Zi3yYTsypera-IQg/store 🕘 Timestamps 0:00 - Introduction to how to harmonize repeated notes 0:54 - An example of a melody with repeated notes 1:54 - The simple solution 3:44 - Thinking about a better solution 5:54 - Choosing the chords and inversions 8:46 - A more interesting cadence 10:02 - Filling in the alto and tenor parts 12:55 - Adding passing notes 13:40 - Thinking dominant seventh chords 15:06 - Switching notes between parts 15:38 - Incorporating a suspension 18:05 - Decorating the suspension 19:06 - Hints of a chord III 21:14 - How does it all work together? 21:54 - Playing the final harmonization 22:02 - Conclusion 🎓 Learn Music Online with Music Matters Learn music theory, aural tests, composition, sight reading, orchestration and more!
