As we continue to work with the subdominant triad, let's examine a melody and see where it might be used as a harmony. This involves the concept of "implied harmony" or inferring a chord that might be used from just the notes of the melody. Although the video refers to specific examples found in a standard harmony text, what is presented here may be applied universally.
