Mathieux Posted February 1, 2009 Share Posted February 1, 2009 I could search them up online, but I'd rather get an opinion.. and.. not make my post count go up.. :whistling: no seriously though, I do have a few questions that I can't answer. 1. What is the difference between a Symphonic orchestra and a Philharmonic orchestra? 2. I am writing a flute trio, and it was suggested that I write a counter melody for the alto flute. I have a basic idea on what a counter melody is, but, how do you write one? Thanks, -Mathieu Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flint Posted February 1, 2009 Share Posted February 1, 2009 1. No difference, it's semantic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ferkungamabooboo Posted February 5, 2009 Share Posted February 5, 2009 2. Countermelody = 2nd melody that acts as a harmonic complement. It's a good place for extensions of chords and reinterpretation of harmony. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
