A harmonic cadence is a progression of two or more chords that concludes a phrase, section, or piece of music.

    • Authentic Cadences. An authentic cadence is a cadence from the dominant (V) to the tonic (I). Many times, a seventh is added to the V chord for an even stronger resolving sound.
    • Half Cadence. A half cadence is any cadence ending on the dominant (V), regardless of which chord precedes it. Because it sounds incomplete or suspended, the half cadence is considered a weak cadence that calls for a continuation.
    • Plagal Cadence. A plagal cadence is a cadence from the subdominant (IV) to the tonic (I). It is also known as the Amen Cadence because of its frequent setting to the text “Amen” in hymns.
    • Deceptive Cadence. A deceptive cadence is a progression in which the dominant chord (V) resolves to a chord other than the tonic (I). In most cases, the dominant (V) will lead to the submediant chord (vi in major keys, VI in minor keys).
