What are the musical melodies?

There is no fixed classification of music melody.

Music melody is the primary element of music. Usually refers to an organized and rhythmic sequence of several musical sounds formed through artistic conception. According to a certain pitch, duration and volume, it has a single voice with logical factors. Melody is composed of many basic elements of music, such as mode, rhythm, beat, strength, timbre performance methods and so on.

Melody line:

Melody consists of two elements, namely, melody line (or pitch line) and rhythm. In the continuous melody process, all kinds of linear or curved processes are formed due to the direction of pitch, which are similar to the stretching or ups and downs of lines in the picture, so they are called melody lines; About the time of sound:

Melody can form all kinds of syntax and structure of music only when the sounds with different pitches (that is, melody lines) are combined with the performance functions of various musical rhythms, such as length, speed and pause.

Rhythm:

Vivid language rhythm and rich life rhythm are the natural basis of melody rhythm; The organic combination of mode, melody line and rhythm, and reflected by a certain musical structure, is a complete tune.

Melody:

"Melody" is the singing melody or the main melody, "singing melody" is the melody that can express some kind of music thoughts, and "main melody" (or main melody) is the melody that plays a leading role in listening.

Musical meaning:

What people used to say about melody actually refers to melody. Melody can refer to any musical sequence with pitch and rhythm. Melody is the basis of composing parts. Only when the melody is composed first can the part (here, the part refers to the position of a melody in music) be produced, thus producing (compound) influence.

For example, four parts of a four-part harmony have their own melodies in progress, and a melody with a sense of melody will appear as the main melodic part (usually a high-pitched part).

The parts of the main melody music are interdependent, and only one part has a sense of melody, so we are used to calling it the "main melody". Polyphony music is composed of melodies (tunes) with independent meanings, and all parts have a sense of tune.

In terms of the relationship between sounds, it also corresponds to "harmony" (a concept of simultaneous sounding, which does not refer to "harmony acoustics" and "harmony" composition knowledge). Harmony is vertical and melody is horizontal.

For example, a harmony interval is when two sounds are sounded at the same time, and it studies the sense of hearing when two sounds are sounded at the same time. Melody tone, on the other hand, refers to the two sounds sounding separately, and studies the sense of hearing when two sounds are sounded separately. At the same interval distance, there is a big gap between melody tone and the harmony interval.
