Polyphony in music refers to the use of more than one note at a time to produce harmony. In monophonic music, only one note at a time is used to produce a melody. The addition of one or more additional notes to a simple melody produces harmonic resonance allowing for more complex musical organization, such as chord structures and key progressions.
