Scarlett Collier · Answer 1

Melody with accompaniment (homophony)

Explanation:

Homophony is an important category of musical texture. It comprises a melody and an accompaniment. The accompaniment may consist of chords moving together with the melody, or a more elaborate pattern, possibly of broken chords or figurations. The melody may be in the highest register or it may be lower in the texture.

Cheers!
