So let's say I play a simple tune and instead of just the notes making up the tune, I play a triad per note where the melody note is the highest note in the triad. Twinkle, Twinkle or whatever it is. Does that, by definition, comprise a "chord melody" arrangement?
And whatever it's called, would it be normal for the same melody note at various points in the tune to be accompanied by different triads depending on where in the tune it falls?
And finally, if one of the melody notes falls on the D strings so you just have the melody note with one additional chord tone under it (on the G strings), that's not a problem is it?
