The birth of polyphony

Before the middle ages it was born

Droning: Cuando una voz hace la nota fina y la mantiene durante toda la pieza y una linea
melodica hace el canto principal

Parallel Organum :when the original chant is sung by one voice and the another voice sings the
chant one 5th below in parallel motion

Organum paralellum: voices doing same melody but separated by a certain interval *usually
perfect 5th

Drone: Last note of a chant held by an instrument or voice

The combitaion of these 2 it’s called MIXED OR OBLIQUE organum
