#684: Creating God, Your Fingers Trace
Dec. 5th, 2019 10:08 pmWhat's the melody?
I know this tune as "The Lone, Wild Bird," which is a choral anthem. The melody is pentatonic, which means it only uses (a specific) five notes of the scale rather than the full seven.
Isn't that also an a capella group?
Pentatonix was named after that musical style, not the other way around.
Does that carry over to the harmonization?
No, a couple B-flats show up in the tenor and alto parts.
