What is melody?
Melody is a musically satisfying tune,a sequence of single notes,vocal or instrumental sounds (or both) combined in such a way as to produce beauty of form,harmony and expression of emotion: http://www.oxforddictionaries.com/definition/english/music, it can come with or without words, it can be a signifier of a person`s mood the way they are feeling, it can distinguish a person`s character or mental frame of mind.
Our brains can automatically decode a melody,`semiotics` a musician can perform music without understanding the meaning or structure as its enriched with sub-text, even without realizing we can work out what`s going to happen next for example: on a TV drama or in a film by the melody the tempo, rhythm, tone and beat of the music changes prior to a dramatic event.
