Cadenzas To Haydn Concerto G Hob 18 No 4

Improvised and also composed solo cadenzas normally occuring towards the end of a bravura aria or an instrumental concerto movement have existed since the late 16th century. They provide the performer with an opportunity for self-presentation in the form of a free style of playing or singing based on themes and motifs from previous sections of the movement. Solo cadenzas are for the most part introduced by a six-four chord held by the orchestra; the soloist begins a protracting interpolation in free stlye subsequently culminating on the dominant chord usually with a trill.
