Harmonizing using the piano accompaniment in sheet music
« on: February 24, 2015, 07:03:09 PM »
Question: I have some sheet music for an old song that has a one-note melody line. The piano accompaniment shows 4 notes in the treble clef and one and/or two notes on the base line. Can I harmonize using the piano accompaniment instead of the melody line? I was told that the piano accompaniment had nothing to do with the harmony of the song. Can I use the 4 notes to harmonize the SATB, and who sings the notes on the bass line? Sorry if this seems a little confusing.
Thanks,
PL
