Favorite Cadenzas

I was asked by my local High School (my alma mater) to perform a solo with their symphonic band. I'm beyond flattered. After a brief discussion, we decided to perform John William's "Viktor's Tale". His only request was to stretch out the cadenza. He feels the audience will get a kick out of some 'fast noodling'.
As you know, the printed cadenza isn't that long and I'm not one for improvising. I was thinking about 'borrowing' some licks of Weber I (Baermann) and Messager's Solo de Concours. Maybe from Copland. I want to keep it light and fun.

What are y'alls favorite cadenzas? I guess I want to create some quasi semi-coherent cool, super cadenza.
