what is harmony and why does it sound good?
In: 18
It is actually way more complex than can be eli5d , bur we can try say the simple bits.
Sound is the air vibrating in waves. When we say waves, it actually looks more like someone leaving a line while weaving perfectly between two sides of a road. A musical note, or pitch, is defined by how fast the driver weaves, or how fast it changes from the top to the bottom.
Notes that harmonize generally have their peaks and dips line up in interesting ways. Notes that are discordant (opposite of harmony) have their peaks and dips almost never line up.
Why do we like this, and what sort of ones do we like exactly? Really, really hard to say.
