Random Question About Music Theory

Post Posted: Post subject: Random Question About Music Theory

Does anybody know what the musical device is called when two songs in a musical, opera, etc are meant to blend and be sung together?

(Example: 76 Trombones and Goodnight from Music Man... or in terms we'll understand Locke and Celes theme from FF6.)

I know Counterpoint is when two songs are mixed, but i think there is a more specific term for that kind of a blend.

A mashup?

Or are you thinking of quodlibet? I guess that's a fancier word for it. :meh:

Not quite a mashup, but quodlibet sounds about right... still I thought it was something less difficult to pronounce. :lol:
