The word that the original party wanted to use was the German
word for "lead in" or "eingang" the plural of which is
"eingange." What was being referred to were those sections
in the Mozart concerto (two in the first movement and one in
the second) at which point a dominant 7th chord is heard in
the orchestra and a fermata is present. The soloist was
expected to do something very specific and what was being
said was that Schifrin was not playing any eingange. I do
not know if this is true, only trying to let Paulette know
the central element of the discussion.

These place in K. 622 have been called "the cadenza" or
"cadenzas" even though no such thing exists in that work.
An eingang is something else again, maybe a distant
third cousin to a cadenza.
