Lesson
Monophonic and
1 Homophonic Textures
Have you watched a concert, choir singing or even listening to a drum and
bugle corps? How many sounds or voices did you hear?
The many voices or sounds that you can hear create different textures in
music.
All performers above sing or perform a certain melody. The only difference is
the texture of the sound of the music they produce. Some textures are thin, others
are thick. It depends on how many melodies are being sang or played together.
Composers and musical arrangers decide on the kind of texture to use in their
work to show the mood they want to express or emphasize.

What’s New
There are many things around us that are thick and thin, just like the clothes
we wear. Some are thick and others are thin. The sounds of music can also have
that same quality. This is called texture. Texture in music will depend on the
number of musical sounds put together.
Vocal music uses and emphasizes the human voice. Sometimes instruments
are used, but the voice is the most important part. Vocal music is the opposite
of instrumental music, which uses any combination of instruments, such as
strings, woodwinds, brass, or percussion usually without the human voice.

What is It
1. Monophonic Texture
Monophonic texture is a single melodic line without accompaniment.
Monophonic means “one sound”. Monophonic texture is created when the melody
is performed without accompaniment or a melody is sung in unison by several voices.
Solo playing of an instrument without accompaniment also produces a monophonic
texture. It creates a thin texture. This is shown in this illustration.
1. 2. 3. 4.
Here are other examples of monophonic texture both vocal and instrumental.
6 CO_Q4_Music 6_Module 2
Below is an example of Are You Sleeping that could be sung in unison, or as
solo voice or solo instrument. Scan the QR code to listen to a piano solo example of
the song.
2. Homophonic Texture
You notice while listening to the music that there is only one instrument
in the example – a piano but there were two different things happening on the
instrument- the right hand is playing the melody and the other hand is playing the
chords/harmony.
Look at the notation of Are You Sleeping Brother John below. The upper
staff shows the melody of the song and the lower staff with the bass clef shows the
chords that supports the melody above.
