Best Answer

Simultaneous performance of two or more melodic lines of relatively equal interest produces the texture called polyphonic, meaning having many sounds. In polyphony several melodic lines compete for attention.

The technique of combining several melodic lines into a meaningful whole is called counterpoint or contracanto.

What is the relationship with steel drums and religion?

There is no specific relationship between steel drums and religion. However, the instrument was invented in Trinidad and Tobago (and called steelpans there and in most of the world) as a form of musical accompaniment to the Carnival celebrations. This Carnival takes place during the pre-Lenten period, as it does in other places such as Rio and New Orleans. The instrument is now used at all times to play all types of music, including as accompaniment to choirs and during church services.
