"Harmonizing", a verb, is typically used when describing a line of music that acts as support for a melody. This music isn't typically written to be remembered (most of what you'll remember is in the melody line), but acts to make the piece more robust and consequently, more beautiful.

Please see the harmony node for more complete information.
