Melodic Motion

• Ascending
• Descending
• Undulating: equal movement in both of the above directions
• Pendulum: extreme undulation which uses a large range and large intervals
• Tile, terrace, or cascading: a number of descending phrases in which each phrase begins on a higher pitch than the last ended
• Arc
• Rise: may be considered a musical form, a contrasting section of higher pitch, a "musical plateau"

• Double tonic: smaller pendular motion in one direction
