How do you use the word cadence in a sentence?

Answer 1

There are many different types of cadence. Cadence can be defined as being a beat or measure of that is rhythmic. It can also be a fall that occurs in the pitch of the voice. An example of cadence in literary work is the Raven which was written by Edgar Allen Poe.

Answer 2

A cadence refers to the move from the dominant chord in a key (V) to the tonic (I). This would be known as an authentic cadence. A move from IV to I would be a plagal cadence, and a move from VI to I would be a deceptive cadence.

if the last syllable of a verse is not stressed it is called a female cadence.

eg. I tryed to see him going

Answer 4

A cadence is a resting (or turning point) in a piece of music. It is analogous to a comma or a period in speech.

There are different kinds of cadences; in traditional classical theory cadences happen at the end of a musical phrase (typically every 4, 8, 12 or another set number of bars), at which point there is a definite change in harmonic flow and energy. It frequently takes the form of a "plagal or perfect cadence" which means ending on a specific chord change that resolves to the tonic. In this case IV-I and V-I, respectively. It is usually a breathing point but can be used as a turning point by using a different chord change (irregular cadences), like V-vi, V-iv or V-bVI or suggest a need for movement (imperfect cadences) like I-V, IV-V and ii-V.

Jazz theory introduces all kinds of substitutions to the traditional cadences, like:

IIm7-V7-bVI Maj7 and bII Maj7-I

Answer 5

The word cadence means rhythm or the way something sounds. For example, the cadence of someone's voice may soothe someone when they are anxious.
