Behind was a strange for me to us. I just meant that while the ostinato
is sounding other melodies are heard.

Of course it can, but in the case of either a passacaglia or chaconne
it is not, it is a ground, in much the same way that an isorhythmic
tenor COULD be called a melody, but as it was used int he 14th century
it was not THE melody. I don't understand the "behind" comment.
