That depends what music you compare it to. For example, in the classical period, music is mainly homophonic and in the baroque period, music is mainly polyphonic. You can hear this in the music of Bach and Mozart. for example, Bach's last work the art of fugue is in polyphonic texture where more than one melody line is heard simultaneously while in Mozart's Eine Kleine Natchmusik, it is mostly in homophonic texture where only one melody is heard and it is supported by harmony.
