Organum is a compositional style that originated in medieval music, specifically in the Notre Dame school of polyphony. It involves adding a second voice to a preexisting plainchant melody at a fixed interval, usually a perfect fifth or fourth. This results in parallel motion and adds harmonic richness to the original monophonic chant.
