Music that is written for only one voice or part is said to be monophonic (the music itself is called "monophony"). This is in contrast to polyphonic music (polyphony), which has more than one part or voice.
In addition, you can familiarize yourself with the terms:
- [English] monophonic
- [English] polyphonic
- [English] polyphony
- [English] homophonic
