In this lesson I explain what a Cadence is and the different types of Cadences. I also play them on the piano so you can hear for yourself how these Cadences sound. Remember! A cadence is like a punctuation mark but for music instead of language.

Thanks for watching! Hope this helps!

  • I think that you got confused between the half cadence and the imperfect cadence...the "authentic cadence" or "perfect" cadence goes from 2 to 1 or 7 to 1 always ending on 1 in the soprano and bass; The imperfect cadence would have scale degrees such as the 2 being in the soprano going to the 3//what does that mean? 1 3 5 are the scale degrees of the "I" chord, and the 5 7 2 and sometimes 4 are the degrees of the V chord or V7 if the 4 degree is added.

  • ohh! thanks. I had two different theory teachers who taught different ways, thus i am a little confused with this term.

  • @SamothRellon I think you were meant to say that to 'OLB8' LOL.

  • @SamothRellon Woah woah, y u mad bro, I'm just complimenting the guy.

  • @OrlyWaitYeah Ok you're just being an asshole, if you looked at the comments you can see that query was already brought up and Andrew already acknowledged it. Get a life and stop watching vids to do with subjects you already know about just to point out an error instead of realising what a huge favour he is doing for thousands and potentially any internet user.

  • hey do you have some videos on cadences for minor key but in traditional harmony? I really like traditional harmony but I know nothing when it comes to minor key so please :)
