A cadence is a 2 chord progression that is used at the end of a musical phrase. There are 4 cadences - Perfect (or Authentic), Plagal, Imperfect (or Half) and Interrupted (or Deceptive) which can sound "finished" or "unfinished".
The perfect cadence is also known as the authentic cadence. It is a progression from chord V to chord I. For example, in C major the progression would be from a G chord to a C chord.
The plagal cadence is from chord IV to chord I - in C major this would be an F chord followed by a C chord.
The imperfect cadence or half cadence is a progression that ends on chord V. It can start on either chord I, II or IV. In C major, the progression could move from chord II (Dm) to chord V (G).
The interrupted cadence of deceptive cadence is a wonderful cadence as it adds an element of surprise into a piece of music. The progression is from chord V to chord VI. The listener thinks that the music is going to return to chord I, but instead they are taken to the "surprising" sound of chord VI.
Cadences are marked on sheet music with a horizontal line between the 2 chords.
Cadences are a really important part of composing as they help to define the end of musical phrases. If you are wanting your phrase to sound finished then use either the perfect (authentic) or plagal cadence. If, on the other hand you would like your music to sound unfinished then choose either the imperfect (half) cadence or interrupted (deceptive) cadence instead.
This is a good presentation of the cadences. However, it would be helpful in this presentation to use the correct Roman Numerals for minor chords and not the major Roman Numeral references across the board.
yes!!!!
That actually confused me for a bit ngl.
Anyone who doesn't know their chords might get the wrong idea.
Agreed. Definitely took me a few seconds to adjust when I first noticed minor chords notated in upper case.
Makes no difference for me when it comes to understand what is being shown. But seen uppercase letters with a minor chord feels uncanny anyway
We got the Roman numeral police over here 🚨🚨
why is a ten minute video easier to grasp than 10+years of music classes? lol thank you for the easy breakdowns
SIR, you are saving my ass in these music classes. I can't tell you how grateful I am
Thank you
i guess im asking randomly but does anybody know a tool to log back into an Instagram account?
I was stupid lost the password. I would love any tips you can offer me.
@Turner Corey Instablaster :)
@Jaylen Kylen thanks for your reply. I got to the site through google and im in the hacking process now.
Looks like it's gonna take quite some time so I will get back to you later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
@Jaylen Kylen it did the trick and I finally got access to my account again. Im so happy:D
Thanks so much, you saved my account !
@Turner Corey You are welcome =)
What a great teacher, make it so clear and comprehensive, sharing it with my grandkids. Thank you SO much!👏
Repent and trust in Jesus. We all deserve Hell for our sins, such as lying lusting coveting and more. We can't save ourselves, but Jesus can save us. He died on the cross to save us for our sins and rose from the grave defeating death and Hell. You must put your faith in him only. He is the only way to Heaven. Repent and trust in Jesus.
Romans 6:23
John 3:16❤😊❤❤
This is the first time I fully understand cadences. I had piano lessons till grade 4 or 5 but i don't understand cadences even though it is in our book. Thank you Sir. Your analogy using nursery rhyme helps.
These videos are helping me though my AP music theory class that I am struggling with, thank you so much!
Hope your class went well!
Plagal candences are so underrated. They sound so good
This is so clear, thanks! I am using this to reinforce cadences for my students.
Thank You so much for taking the time to explain it so well!!
Incredible lesson! Learned a lot. Please do more!!!👏👏👏👏
Such a perfect presentation!!! Genius!!!!
Clearly and simplified explanation for Cadences. Average people who like music but need more music theory to know, it is the good place.to view.
I have just visited your website. You are so generous in sharing your knowledge, skills and passion for music. Thank you very much. May you be richly blessed!
Finally, I understand this business of cadences! Thanks!
Ben, you are a captivating teacher. A clearer explanation could not be presented. Thank you and Bravo!
Thank you! That is really encouraging!
NOTES FOR SELF
perfect: ends on I (V-I) (string finish)
plagal: IV-I (gentle finish)
unfinished: never ends on I:
-> imperfect/half cadence (I-V, II-V, IV-V)
-> interrupted/deceptive: unexpected (ex V-VI)
I ❤ love this brief and comprehensive explanation about cadences🎼it's helpful coz am a flutist and I like composition.👍🏽
Thank you very much, your way of explaining is very concise.

I agree with Brian. IT IS REQUIRED to use the correct Roman numeral to identify MAJOR and “minor” degrees.

Thank you very much sir
Thank you!!!
Wonderful
Nice explanation 👍
I saw this, only to check whether the phrygian half cadence was mentioned. It is used to finish a tune by Hans Leo Hassler, used for several old hymns. J.S. Bach liked this tune and made several chorals and variations over it. Paul Simon also uses it in American Tune, but he changes the finish, so in his version there is no phrygian half cadence.
thank you so much...
love it thanks for you work video
Love the perfect authentic cadence on Disgustang!
Thank you 😊 sir...I can identify cadences❤
Two other cadences often heard are iv -> I and flat VI [aka the Peggy Sue chord] -> flat VII [aka IV of IV] -> I (e.g. in Beatles "P.S. I Love You." Bb - C - D)
Thanks a lot man ❤
very cool. Thank you.
Thank you sir very helpful👍
Thank you
Thanks!!
Great video! I hope the video didn't have blurred parts because those look distracting but otherwise this was perfect!
Thanks
