The following excerpts exemplify the three basic textures of music. Monophonic texture, you will find, is easy to hear because it has only one line of music. More difficult is differentiating polyphonic texture and homophonic texture. Homophonic texture usually uses blocks of chords that accompany and support a single melody. Polyphonic texture, on the other hand, embodies many active, independent lines. Identify the texture of each of the excerpts by choosing the best answer.
