Intro to Cadences (music theory)

In music, cadences help to guide the movement of a chord progression. But with names like "plagal," "imperfect," and "deceptive," cadences can seem confusing or mysterious. They're not -- at least once you see the underlying theory of harmony. I'll show you.

The analogy of full stops and commas is brilliant. Explained it in seconds.

[@curtpiazza1688]

This is the best video I've seen on this topic...keep on doing what you're doing!

[@Nathanaelsun22]

another incredible Brilliant video!!! So concise so WOW and such effective and fascinating insights...

[@CarlitoProductions]

This helped a lot clarifying my confusion on the subject. Thank you so much!

[@lawrencetaylor4101]

Very good video. I wish I had learned about cadences before I learned about chord inversions.

[@Somanybeats]

Awesome video! Underrated for real

[@mikegeorge360]

Thanks!

[@YAKA3105]

Thanks bro. Very educational

[@mikegeorge360]

Awesome-I’m glad it helps. 🤘

[@kevinhornbuckle]

Agreed.

[@Unconventional03]

Will you be making a video about some uncommon cadences?

[@mikegeorge360]

I can definitely talk more about cadences and how they propel the music forward. 🤘

[@dre7256]

Thank you!!!!!

[@grandtout1953]

Where is the tension and the resolution in the plagal cadence ? Is it between the fundamental of the IVth and the third of the I ? Between the F and the E in major C ?

[@markdelange3638]

In the key of C, the perfect cadence is Gmaj to Cmaj. The imperfect cadence is its inverse, Cmaj to Gmaj - which could also be heard as a plagal cadence in G. Am I getting this right - and is there any special significance to these relationships?

[@luxinveritate3365]

Not a big fan of the perfect and imperfect labels, love the videos btw. I tend to use authentic and half, and split the authentic into perfect and imperfect. Since having tonic in both top most and bass voices and going from a root position V chord makes the perfect authentic more restful. But having anything but that makes it sound various degrees of less restful, thus imperfectly authentic.

[@mikegeorge360]

Cool. Yes, the labels used might be imperfect. :)

[@kevinhornbuckle]

In C ionian, what makes E to G a minor third?

[@mikegeorge360]

The video "Chord Theory Explained" talks more about the intervals within a given key, and the labels/spacing between notes.
