Talk:Cadenza

Pronouns

I'm sorry about all the fiddling over "his" and "their" and so on, but I'm keen on gender neutrality where possible. Thanks to Dysprosia for coming up with a solution which (hopefully) everyone can live with. --Camembert

Marching

I'm not sure what the meaning of the second part of this article about marching is. Can somebody clarify? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 4.14.117.150 (talk) 16:45, 13 March 2005‎

Guitar solo

Technically speaking, isn't a guitar solo a cadenza? I was thinking about inserting something in accordance with that into that article. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Matthias 01 (talk • contribs) ‎13:33, 2 July 2007

I was wondering the same thing. (Actually that's why I came to this article.) This article's descriptions of cadenza do certainly bring to mind the "guitar solo" typical in rock. I have no idea what kind of reliable sources could be drawn from to explore this. If someone were to find good sources that discuss this, I think it would be a worthwhile addition to this article. --108.181.232.201 (talk) 06:22, 29 October 2016 (UTC)

Jazz

The mention of jazz is appropriate; the gushing about Coltrane is not. --Wegesrand (talk) 09:46, 29 November 2007 (UTC)

Szymanowski

I've added a note about the violin concertos written by Karol Szymanowski. According to the liner notes of the | Naxos recording of the concertos (linked here to prove the information is real) the cadenzas in both concertos were in fact written by the intended soloist one Pavel Kochański in conjunction with the composer.

Locatelli

Can somebody answer the following question for me? Was Locatelli the originator of the Cadenza? His Capriccios in "Art of the Violin"? I can't think of any earlier concerti where they are used? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 92.4.140.175 (talk) 10:17, 25 August 2008 (UTC)

Kumaraguru College of Technology

The following line is completely irrelevant to the topic (music/cadenza).

Cadenza is the famous function held in Kumaraguru College of Technology, Coimbatore, India organised and conducted by the students of KCT.

I'm removing it. Can be added later to the appropriate section/page.Composerananth (talk) 21:14, 12 March 2009 (UTC)

Vocalist's cadenza

We don't have notable examples of a vocalist's cadenza. I propose including Gilbert & Sullivan's aria "Poor Wandering One" from the operetta The Pirates of Penzance. Any comments? Cuddlyable3 (talk) 12:54, 29 March 2010 (UTC)

Cleanup

Why and where does this article need to be cleaned up? How should it be cleaned up? Hyacinth (talk) 04:19, 2 April 2012 (UTC)

Regional English

I just reverted a change from UK to US style, concerning whether an orchestra is to be regarded as a monolithic entity (American) or a body of individuals (UK). However, it is not immediately evident what the established style here is. Checking the edit history, the article was started by an anonymous IP address in California, then edited by another anonymous IP address in Rome (the one in Italy), then edited by User:Sodium who self-identifies as British, but none of these early editors actually established anything that would distinguish a particular regional style of language. Region-neutral is of course preferred where possible, but in the present case this cannot be done. If a pronoun is to be used at all, it must either be singular or plural. Perhaps there is a way of recasting the sentence, or else there are other indicators in the text of this article that I have missed.—Jerome Kohl (talk) 18:17, 21 November 2014 (UTC)

Mozart K.333

I think it is not correct to call a cadenza in Mozart's sonata K. 333 "unusual", since it is quite often seen in classical sonatas, eg. the works of Dusek, Johann Christian Bach,... It might be unusual for the Austro-German style, or classical style after 1780, but I believe we should rethink the formulation.

Eingang

Since "Eingang" redirects to this article, there should be some mention of what an Eingang is, and an image from a score. 108.244.74.98 (talk) 02:49, 6 June 2017 (UTC)

Most puzzling, Eingang is German for "entrance", which as far as I can see has nothing whatever to do with the subject of this article. Perhaps User:Hyacinth, who created the redirect in April 2012, can enlighten us?—Jerome Kohl (talk) 04:42, 6 June 2017 (UTC)

It's on Wikipedia:Music encyclopedia topics/12. I assume it should redirect to "cue note", but de:Stichnote doesn't contain the term. Maybe "cue (theatrical)", "entrance music", or introduction (music)? Hyacinth (talk) 05:10, 6 June 2017 (UTC)
