I once heard the first movement cadenza done where the player glissed from the high Eb(or f, my part isn't at hand) up to a double high C instead of the Ab and came down an f minor scale then picked up the cadenza from there. This was done on a Marzan rotary valve CC with a Conn Helleberg and the whole piece was played, pretty flawlessly. It wasn't me and the player who did it now is a regular Joe. Honest-to-God, it was Sophomore Honors recital at a backwater school!!!! Names deleted to protect the innocent. Absolutely true story.
