Definition
A state of doing or saying something at the same time as others. In music, it means two or more voices or instruments sounding the same note together.
Etymology
From Latin 'ūnisonus' meaning 'sounding together', from 'ūnus' (one) + 'sonus' (sound). It came into English via French in the 1500s.
Kelly Says
Unison is literally 'one sound', even when many people are involved. A crowd chanting together is many bodies but just one voice, in sound and in purpose.
