I did some years ago on a Haydn Concerto. I think it was the B flat major, though he probably wrote several in that key.

Also worthy to note, you can do this with romantic solo literature, as Rachmaninoff did with Liszt's Hungarian Rhapsody #2- worth a listen.

Sorry, the F major. Second movement, which is in B flat major.
