Capuzzi Cadenza in F

I have just gotten through the first movement of the Capuzzi Concerto in F, and the edition I have doesn't have a cadenza, it just has a C with a fermata over it with "cadenza" written over it. I was just at the Brevard Music Center, and my teacher, Kevin Casseday was going to give me the cadenza that the former principal of the National Symphony wrote, but the summer ran out and he wasn't able to give me the music. I was wondering if anyone here has that or another cadenza.

If it's at all possible, could you scan it and send me the file?

Just do various renditions of the two themes higher and lower. End the cadenza with a trill on G then resolve on the F.

or try to copy the cadenza at 6:24 of this video.
