Generation

A cadence is a harmonic progression that marks the end of a musical phrase, providing a sense of resolution or pause. The main types are: **authentic cadence** (V-I, with perfect authentic being the strongest when both chords are in root position and the tonic is in the soprano), **plagal cadence** (IV-I, the "Amen" cadence), **half cadence** (ends on V, creating tension), and **deceptive cadence** (V-vi or V-VI, avoiding expected resolution). While cadences don't have mathematical formulas, they follow the fundamental harmonic progression pattern: **V→I** represents the strongest resolution due to the dominant-to-tonic relationship, where the leading tone (scale degree 7) resolves up to the tonic (scale degree 1).
