Many years ago, and conductor friend was conducting a small metropolitan
orchestra. At the next concert, the featured soloist was to be the winner
of the concerto competition. A letter arrived from the orchestra manager,
a woman with more time than musical knowledge, which stated that the
soloist would play the ?*?*?*? Concerto, but would not perform the
credenza (?!?!).

What I want to know from Dan is, is the credenza anything like the
eingong?
