Parallel harmony

When all voices between chords move in parallel motion, this generally reduces or negates the effect of harmonic progression.However, "occasionally chords such as the tonic and dominant may create the sense of harmonic progression".[1] Lines with parallel harmony can be viewed as a series of chords with the same intervallic structure.Parallel means that each note within the chord rises or falls by the same interval.Modern digital audio workstations offer similar chord-generating tools for achieving parallel harmony.
