Is It Different Between Arpeggio and Chord?

When playing sweeping arpeggio techniques, always make comments from listeners (lay people). They always say "why is it hard to play arpeggio? Playing chords is the same." indeed arpeggio and chord have similarities, but on the other hand these two techniques are very different. Here is the explanation.

Arpeggio.
Arpeggio is chord notes that are played one by one. so, suppose we play the D key, then the notes are played one by one. But the tone must sound or be picked one by one or the tone may not sound in the same time. Because if there is more than one note that sounds together, then it is a chord, not an arpeggio.
It can be concluded that the chord and arpeggio are different, but there are similarities. In Chords, each note is played at the same time. while the arpeggio is played one by one. At first arpeggio sounds like classical music. So if you want to make your music a bit like a classic, you can use arpeggio. It should also be noted that the arpeggio and scales are different. Scales (usually) are notes in the key to the song in question. While Arpeggio is the notes of the chord that was played at that time. So, the scales are still wider than an arpeggio.

Chord.
Chord is an arrangement of several tones formed into
one, can consist of two or more tones. So here
the basic tone that originally consisted of A-B-C-D-E-F-G
combined like C-E-G (Pressed on
together) so as to form a tone stability
harmonious, well that's what is called a chord.
This Chord according to the theory is divided into several types:
1. Triad
2. Seventh
3. Extended
4. Added
Triads are the most commonly used type of chord
consists of three sets of tones. The triad itself is divided
again into several parts, namely:
1. Major / Major
2. Minor
3. Augmented
4. Diminished
5. Suspended

From the explanation I have shown, it is very clear and contrast between the arpeggio and the chord. An arpeggio is obtained from the chord that has been melted into many tunes in the appropriate order. While the chord is a lot of tones being made one.

My Favorite Songs From Musicals

Lately, I like watch musical dramas or animated videos from musical dramas. There are my favorite songs from the musicals: 1. Candy Store (Heathers) In this song, Heather Chandler lays down the law and offers her protegée Veronica a choice: be cruel and powerful like the Heathers or go back to your loser friends and be nobody. The song starts when Veronica realizes Chandler has tricked her into forging a cruel love letter to Martha , posing as Martha’s lifelong crush, Ram . I like how this song tells the mean girls point of view. My favorite part is when Heather Duke sing and try to catch the highnotes then being yelled by Heather Chandler, “Shut up, Heather!”, that’s really funny. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-jviZGERpqg&index=2&list=RDYuCux-Dtk-0 1. Meant To Be Yours (Heathers) JD breaks into Veronica’s room, wielding a gun, as she bar...

Globalization is one of the factors causing the entry of foreign culture into Indonesia.

The abroad culture that entered Indonesia caused a change in social qualities in Indonesia. Furthermore, it makes Indonesian culture be feeble in light of the fact tha...

One of the interesting and happening things in the world of adolescence is the dating trend that is favored by some teenagers. Courtship is a relationship between two people of the opposite sex and they have an emotional attachment, where the relationship is based on the feelings in each other's hearts(Kyns, 1989).
