Bravura
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In classical music, a bravura is a virtuosic passage intended to show off the skill of a performer, generally as a solo, and often in a cadenza.
It can also be used as an adjective ("a bravura passage", "her bravura piece"), or to refer to a performance of extraordinary virtuosity.[1] The term comes from the Italian word for bold and is etymologically related to the English adjective brave.
