The composer says: "The cadenzas I am offering in this book are the result of my experiments over the years to present the material in Mozart’s concertos through different musical prisms. At times, I would try to stay within the parameters of the style known in the era of Mozart, and at others I would use more exuberant techniques, reminiscent of Paganini. In some cases, I felt like engaging in a “conversation” with other instruments similar to a technique used in operas in those days. As far as the numerous fermatas are concerned, the performance practice of that time called for a short “lead in” type of improvisation. I included my ideas of how this could be done in this book with the exception of a few cases where I felt a short pause would better serve as a silent “bridge” between sections of different character."
