Harmony means “joint.” People create true harmony in interactions when each individual expresses himself or herself to the fullest extent and joins with others to form a harmonious whole. As in music, harmony demands that each of us “hold our own note” so that each distinct energy is expressed within the whole. Harmony cannot be achieved when everyone expresses the same thoughts, beliefs, and actions. That's monotony. Harmony is the combination of unique voices and their progression in relationships.
The chordal accompaniment of a melody; vertical representation instead of horizontal.
Harmony is the chordal or vertical structure of a piece of music, as opposed to melody (and polyphony, or multiple melodies) which represents the horizontal structure. The succession of chords in a given piece is referred to as a chord progression.

often used in Western music and other music forms, it is the practice of singing in parts, where each person has a part (often of different pitches) and sings or plays that part. The sounds become blended together though of different pitch to give a uniform, beautiful sound. Harmony usually has 4 sets of pitches: soprano (the highest), alto, tenor and bass (lowest). The highest voices are for female singers and the lowest for male singers, most often. Harmony is rarely used, if at all, in Carnatic music
Simultaneously occurring pitches.
Two or more notes sounding simultaneously.
The simultaneous occurrence of pitches in a way that is musically significant.
The study of simultaneously sounding tones.
At its most basic level, the result of two or more pitches sounding simultaneously. Harmony can be the result of counterpoint (the interweaving of several independent melodies), or chordal writing (where a melody is harmonized, or supported, by other notes). Harmony can be concordant, with all pitches 'agreeing' with each other, or it can be dissonant, creating a sense of tension. Composers' use of harmony has evolved from medieval and Renaissance times, where chordal writing was almost entirely concordant, to the music of the 20th century, which makes increasing use of dissonance.

Schenker's name did not appear on the original edition of the work: the author was listed simply as "an artist".
