ï‚—Counterpoint
ï‚—How to use Counterpoint in arranging
ï‚—How Counterpoint can be used to enhance a Melody.
Counterpoint is an additional Melody happening at the
same time as the main Melody.
The Counterpoint Melody has to fit Harmonically with
the main melody, but will often differ rhythmically and
form a Melody in isolation.
Find the Melody of your arrangement
2. In an alternative instrument begin to add a harmony
line
3. Use slightly different rhythms and tied notes to
create a different feel
4. If you wish too you could create an entirely new
sounding accompanying melody as long as it
Harmonically refers to the original melody
