Hi,

If you want Rachmaninoff's Cadenza for the Hungarian Rhapsody #2, I can email it to you.

I think it's better if you create your own. It's a cadenza ad libitum, so you should improvise. To just play other people's cadenzas, to me, seems kind of lazy :p.

@Liszmaninopin: it would be great if you could send it to me :)

@DarkWind: yeah, i know i should improvise a one, but improvising normally doesnt mean creating one before playing it, it means creating one WHILE playing   :P
well, perhaps i'll make a mixture of the different cadenzas i have, with a little bit of my own influence
;)

I know that, what did you think i was saying? It's ok if you have a general idea of how you cadenza is going to be, helps you out more. I generally go back to the main theme in the introduction, and give it a little bit more breath. Actually, quite a lot of breath :p. I play that section but in ascending and descending rapid chords. The left hand plays tremolos and what not. It generally works well enough for me. Of course I give some changes to the main theme. Since it's improvising, it's not always that well! :p

I just sent it to your address.

To tell you the truth, I can't remember where I found it, I've had the file for a while now.

I thought that cadenzas were planned out BEFORE the piece was to be played.  Actually improvising is the suckers way of doing it which is filled with mystique and more mystique.
