    Medieval music used mainly church modes like the C major and E minor scales. It featured monophonic melodies with rhythmic notation indicated by symbols like dots over notes. Harmony was rarely used and instead sequential melodic lines were layered. Instruments included organs, lutes, harps and woodwinds. Polyphony, or multiple independent melodic lines, emerged later in the medieval period.
