Call and response is a musical technique where:
One musician offers a phrase, and a second player answers with a direct commentary or
response.
It consists of a ‘statement’ phrase and contrasting ‘answer’ phrase delivered one after the other.
It creates a back-and-forth conversation between different musical elements.
It can be from one voice, multiple voices, or an instrument, creating a musical conversation.
