harmonization

/ˌhɑɹmənɪˈzeɪʃən/ noun

An act of harmonizing.

Word Origin Harmonization comes from Greek harmonia 'agreement, joint', which is related to the PIE root *h₂er- 'to fit together'. That same root gives us art, article, articulate, and even arm (a joint). So harmonization is about fitting parts together smoothly, and harmony originally meant a joining of sounds.
