🎵Melodic Phrasing
hardHarmonic Implication Melody
Play single note melodies that clearly imply chord changes without playing chords: C major for 2 bars, A minor for 2 bars, F major for 2 bars, G major for 2 bars. Each melody should make the chord change obvious to a listener while maintaining one continuous, singable melodic line throughout all 8 bars.
Tip: Master melodists paint harmony with single notes. The secret is emphasizing chord tones on strong beats while using voice leading to connect between chords smoothly.
