Term 2 - Lessons 14 and 15, 6th and 10th March 2017

For the Grade 5 Theory Exam, they ask you to add chords to form cadences.

This link gives a good explanation of what cadences are.

You only need to know about these three types of cadence:

Perfect (V - I)

Plagal (IV - I)

Imperfect (I - V,   IV - V  or   II - V)


So, there are only 4 chords you can use (I, II, IV or V) and only in those 5 orders above!!

The other good news, is that the question will only be in C, G, D or F Major!!


This link takes you through the method in great detail.
