  1. What comes first the chicken or the egg?

    Do you start with the tune, then add harmony, or do you develop the melody from the harmonic progression? From an educators point of view, I say both. Melody and harmony are interwoven, each one motivating the other. Play you melodies AS harmonic progressions, because they are. Then lighten them up with the appropriate chord support. I suggest you take a piano class because it's much easier to write/arrange on the piano. You can see the melody and harmony, and if you study piano a while, you learn to voice that harmony with the melody, thus connecting them in a linear way and move forward.
