Our focus in this lesson is on the cadential 6-4 chord.<\/p>\n

At the end of this lesson, you’ll be able to define the cadential 6-4 chord, recognize it in chord progressions, and also be able to apply it in songs.<\/p>\n

But before we talk about the cadential 6-4 chord, let’s refresh our mind on the strongest chord progression in music: the chord progression from the 5-chord to the 1-chord.<\/p>\n

A Quick Review Of The “5-1” Chord Progression<\/h2>\n

The strongest chord progressions in music move in fifths and the most notable example of such a chord progression and perhaps the strongest in music is the movement from the 5-chord to the 1-chord.<\/p>\n

In the key of\u00a0 C major:
\n
\n…the 5-chord is G major chord:
\n
\n…while the 1-chord is the C major chord:
\n
\nSo, if you progress from the G major chord to the C major chord:<\/p>\n

G major chord:
\n
\nC major chord:
\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

…you’ve just played the 5-1 chord progression.<\/p>\n

The 5-1 chord progression even sounds a lot better if the 5-chord is played as a dominant seventh chord. So, we progress from the G dominant seventh chord:
\n
\n…to the C major chord:
\n<\/p>\n

The 5-1 Chord Progressions And The Ending Of Most Songs<\/h3>\n

Now, this chord progression is found at the end of songs; especially hymns, anthems, worship songs, praise songs, and other songs because it creates a sense of finality.<\/p>\n

Remember the end of the Happy Birthday Song<\/em>, right?<\/p>\n

If you want to give it a strong sense of finality, you’ll have to play the 5-1 chord progression at the end of the song:<\/p>\n

To (the 5-chord):
\n
\nYou (the 1-chord):
\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

I’m very certain that after progressing from the 5-chord to 1-chord, you’ll have this finality that shows that the song has come to an end and might even get the audience to clap.<\/p>\n

The Perfect Cadence In Music<\/h3>\n

In music theory, the movement of the 5-chord to the 1-chord is called the perfect cadence and it actually is a perfect way to end songs and if you listen to classical and jazz songs, you’ll hear the perfect cadences.<\/p>\n

I don’t know the country you’re reading this blog from. But I can assure you that the last two chords of your national anthem would be the 5-chord and the 1-chord and that’s a perfect cadence.<\/p>\n

So, most songs end with a perfect cadence and the next time you hear a song end with a movement of the 5-chord to the 1-chord, that’s a perfect cadence.<\/p>\n

Introduction To The Cadential 6-4 Chord<\/h2>\n

The cadential 6-4 chord is a chord that is played before the 5-1 chord progression. So, it is its position, by the virtue of being right before the perfect cadence that gave it its name: the cadential 6-4 chord.<\/p>\n

Here’s how the cadential 6-4 chord is formed:<\/p>\n

Step 1: Go to the fifth tone of the major scale<\/p>\n

Step 2: Add a tone that is a sixth<\/strong> above the note in step 1.<\/p>\n

Step 2: Add another tone that is a third<\/strong> above the note in step 1.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

So, in the key of C major:
\n
\n..the fifth tone of the scale is G:
\n
\nNow, to this G:
\n
\n…you can add the first note that is a sixth above G and that’s E (that’s step 2):
\n
\n…and altogether, you have G-E:
\n
\n…then you go to step 3 by adding another note that is a fourth above G (and that’s C):
\n
\nAltogether, we have “G-C-E”:
\n
\n…and that’s the cadential 6-4 chord.<\/p>\n

“Here’s The Cadential 6-4 Chord…”<\/em><\/h3>\n

Playing the 1-chord in the major key with the fifth tone on the bass produces the cadential 6-4 chord.<\/p>\n

For example, in the key of C major:
\n
\n…where the 1-chord is the C major chord:
\n
\nPlaying the C major chord with G on the bass:
\n
\n…produces the cadential 6-4 chord and it doesn’t matter the key you’re in, you’ll still derive the cadential 6-4 chord if you follow the same procedures.<\/p>\n

So, the 1-chord with the fifth tone of the scale on the bass is the cadential 6-4 and that’s as long as it precedes the 5-1 chord progression.<\/p>\n

Application Of The Cadential 6-4 Chord<\/h3>\n

Now, if we play the cadential 6-4 chord right before the 5-1 chord progression, here’s what we’ll get:<\/p>\n

Cadential 6-4 chord:
\n
\n5-chord:
\n
\n1-chord:
\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

…and this happens a lot in songs.<\/p>\n

For example in the Hymn Oh How I Love Jesus <\/em>we have the ending as:<\/p>\n

Loved:<\/p>\n

…me:<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

…but if we add the cadential 6-4 chord, we’ll have this:<\/p>\n

First:
\n
\n…loved:
\n
\n…me:
\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

…and if you play the chord progression with the cadential 6-4 chord, you can hear how the cadential 6-4 chord creates a kind of a preparation for the 5-1 chord progression to bring the song to an end.<\/p>\n

Final Words<\/h2>\n

I’m sure you’ve learned what the cadential 6-4 chord is and can also identify it.<\/p>\n

I encourage you to take a few hymns and anthems and try to spot the last two chords (which are most likely going to be the 5-1 chord progression), then you try to precede the 5-1 chord progression with the cadential 6-4 chord.<\/p>\n

At the end of the Hymn All Hail The Power Of Jesus Name <\/em>we have the ending as:<\/p>\n

Pos (cadential 6-4 chord):
\n
\n…trate (5-chord):
\n
\n…fall (1-chord):
\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Special appreciation goes to my mentor and role-model, Jermaine Griggs, for this rare opportunity of sharing this concept with you and for all that Ive been privileged to learn from him as well.<\/p>\n
