Harmonic continuity, which aims to link the voices of the chords in the smoothest way possible. To do this, it is essential to know as many chord positions as possible along the neck and especially inverted chords. How do you achieve harmonic continuity? By maintaining the common notes between the two chords. When there are no common notes, the voices of the chord will move towards the closest ones of the next. Voice leading (or part writing) is the linear progression of individual melodic lines (voices or parts) and their interaction with one another to create harmonies, typically in accordance with the principles of common-practice harmony and counterpoint.
