Schillinger Harmonization of a Diatonic Melody, Part 2/4 Diatonic Harmonization

This is Part 2 in a series on Harmonization of a Diatonic Melody, as discussed in Book 6 (The Correlation of Harmony and Melody), Chapter 3 from the Schillinger System of Musical Composition. We focus on the diatonic harmonization approach. Fundamental aspects, such as chord density, melody chordal functions and tension range, the selection of chord type, diatonic root cycles and voice leading are illustrated with ten short examples. Then five diatonic harmonizations of the full melody are shown as chord progressions in different modes and instrumental forms in various musical styles.
