To me, and pardon the most basic of explanations, trance plays more of an emphasis to synthetic sound sources in conjunction with classical melody patterns. To point to an illustrative comparison, I tend to think House music tends towards more traditional rhythm & blues sounds fused with jazz musical elements. It's not that both don't use synthetic and organic instruments such as vocals or pianos. It is in the placement of these interchangeable parts within the musical composition, that the distinction is made with, once again, classical or jazz/RnB modalities influencing such placement regarding trance or house respectively.
