falling (melody) Explanation: There are various ways of saying this: one of them being the translation I proposed. Also consider: "downward-moving (phrase)" or some of the other suggestions our colleagues posted. Consider that a melody of this sort (based on my musical knowledge and the research I did briefly), goes down in terms of the notes on the scale, so you could employ any word that suggests that downward movement of the notes on an instrument (similar to saying downward on the scale, too). The opposite of my translation would be a rising melody (as may be obvious). |
