What is music that features one melody performed by several different voices in succession?
A more descriptive way to put it might be "...more than one line." In general, you could call such music "polyphonic." The music might also be a two- or three-part invention, or perhaps a fugue. Music isn't necessarily polyphonic just because it has rich harmony. On the other hand, some orchestral music is very rich in polyphony. Listen to almost any of the symphonies of Mahler, and you may experience a polyphonic overdose. In terms of popular music, there are more recent examples than this, but if you can get a recording of The Music Man, go to the song that combines melodies for "Lida Rose" and "Will I Ever Tell You". OK, not on the same level as Mahler, but a lovely, inventive and accessible polyphony just the same. See ...er, hear... the link below.
