I looked it up.

I think that the category of hymn cadence you’re talking about is ‘plagal cadence’.

Isn’t it odd how things you’ve not thought about for decades suddenly come to mind?

I doubt if that’s what dv was referring to although I can see how you might reach that conclusion if look at Google AI summary but I think that’s just another of its errors.

The plagal cadence is found in stacks of music. It is just a IV to I chord progression and typically ends hymns.. Ah – Men
