A half cadence is a musical phrase that ends on the dominant chord, creating a sense of suspense or incompleteness, as it naturally leads the listener to expect resolution to the tonic. This cadence is often used to punctuate a musical idea or to set up a return to the main theme, effectively serving as a musical comma rather than a period.
