Cadence Of Hyrule
In Western musical theory, a cadence () is the end of a phrase in which the melody or harmony creates a sense of full or partial resolution, especially in music of the 16th century onwards.Don Michael Randel (1999). ''The Harvard Concise Dictionary of Music and Musicians'', pp. 105-106. . A harmonic cadence is a progression of two or more chords that concludes a phrase, section, or piece of music. A rhythmic cadence is a characteristic rhythmic pattern that indicates the end of a phrase. A cadence can be labeled "weak" or "strong" depending on the impression of finality it gives. While cadences are usually classified by specific chord or melodic progressions, the use of such progressions does not necessarily constitute a cadence—there must be a sense of closure, as at the end of a phrase. Harmonic rhythm plays an important part in determining where a cadence occurs. The word "cadence" sometimes slightly shifts its meaning depending on the context; for example, it can be ...

Root (chord)
In the music theory of harmony, the root is a specific Note (music), note that names and typifies a given chord (music), chord. Chords are often spoken about in terms of their root, their Chord quality, quality, and their Chord extensions, extensions. When a chord is named without reference to quality, it is assumed to be major chord, major—for example, a "C chord" refers to a C major triad, containing the notes C, E, and G. In a given harmonic context, the root of a chord need not be in bass note, the bass position, as chords may be Inversion (music), inverted while retaining the same name, and therefore the same root. In tertian harmonic theory, wherein chords can be considered stacks of third intervals (e.g. in common practice period, common practice tonality), the root of a chord is the Musical note, note on which the subsequent thirds are stacked. For instance, the root of a triad (music), triad such as E Minor is E, independently of the vertical order in which the three n ...
