Subj: Re: [kl] Improvising in Mozart

I did not mean to suggest that people should argue just because I made
some logic and word play that led to such a characterization. There
is a difference between argument, civilized debate and discussion.
Then there can be different degrees of argument. I prefer to stay on
the civilized end of the spectrum and I suspect many list members
prefer that as well.

I am quite capable of ad libbing and improvising verbally. I am not
skilled in musical improvisation. At least not in the style of Mozart
or Jazz.

I have heard of an eingang. Alas, I had forgotten the term though. I
am glad to be reminded of it.

Dan Leeson's explanation was much clearer than the wiktionary and
wikipedia explanations too. Wikipedia even calls it a cadenza. This
may be one of those well estabi classic point of debate? From what I
remember of the eingang written into my old sheet music, it was Carl
Baermann's famous one, which sounded more like a lead-in than a
segment unto itself.

So, I looked at the imslp copy of the concerto and cannot find it.
Where is it supposed to be? I want to guess between measures 59 and
60 of the second movement.
