Harmonize the First 8-Bar Melody


A chord is two or more simultaneously sounding pitches (according to encyclopedia). While you are playing to chords at a time it makes a more soothing tone. Chord progressions are a series of musical chords (according to Wikipedia). I chose my chords, and chord progressions by looking at the chart with all the Majors and Minor.

My First 8 Bar Melody

I made a composition called "The Longfellow". A place that inspired me to make this composition was the street I live in. I found this composition easy to make there were no difficulties at all. What I enjoyed the most of all was truly being able to have fun while creating music. I would advice that everyone should save their work a lot.
