Trevor:

Thank you for your reply and the command. You increased my knowledge and
enjoyment of Lilypond.

For future use, I assume that the "1/4" resets the position by one quarter
note/rest and that if I needed to reset it by 2 beats I would use 1/2.
Correct?

Mark

Using a \cadenzaOn \cadenzaOff pair causes the internal accounting of
position within a bar to be discontinued.  In particular, the value of
measurePosition is reset to zero.  So if a cadenza starts anywhere but at a
bar line you have to manually reset the value of measurePosition to the
correct position within a bar.

In your case, Mark, inserting
  \set Timing.measurePosition = #(ly:make-moment 1/4) after \cadenzaOff will
correct the problem, since the cadenza starts one quarter note after the
start of the bar.

@BugSquad I think this justifies at least a doc issue, but maybe this should
be a bug - cadenze should be able to start within a bar.
