disharmony – מילון אנגלי-אנגלי
disharmony
n.
lack of harmony, discord
Harmony
In
music,
harmony is the use of simultaneous
pitches (
tones,
notes), or
chords. The study of harmony involves chords and their construction and
chord progressions and the principles of connection that govern them. Harmony is often said to refer to the "vertical" aspect of music, as distinguished from
melodic line, or the "horizontal" aspect.
Counterpoint, which refers to the interweaving of melodic lines, and
polyphony, which refers to the relationship of separate independent voices, are thus sometimes distinguished from harmony.
