NOTE

MUSIC: CADENCE

In music, a cadence is a melodic or harmonic progression that creates a sense of resolution or conclusion at the end of a phrase, section, or piece. Cadences are often used to mark the end of a musical phrase or to provide a feeling of finality.

Types of Cadences

  1. Perfect Cadence: Also known as an authentic cadence, this is the strongest and most conclusive type of cadence. It typically involves a progression from the dominant (V) chord to the tonic (I) chord. In major keys, this is often a chord progression from G to C, and in minor keys, it's from E to Am.
  2. Imperfect Cadence: Also known as a half cadence, an imperfect cadence provides a sense of partial resolution or suspension. It usually involves a progression from any chord to the dominant (V) chord. Commonly, it's a chord progression from C to G in a major key or Am to E in a minor key.
  3. Plagal Cadence (Amen Cadence): This cadence is characterized by a chord progression from the subdominant (IV) to the tonic (I) chord. It's often associated with hymns and has a peaceful, amen-like quality. In C major, it would be F to C, and in A minor, it would be Dm to Am.
  4. Interrupted Cadence (Deceptive Cadence): Also known as a deceptive cadence, this type of cadence surprises the listener by resolving to a chord other than the expected tonic. It typically involves a progression from the dominant (V) chord to a chord other than the tonic (I). For example, instead of resolving from G to C in C major, it might resolve from G to Am.
