Markup for cadenza rest

[Benjamin Esham]

Hello all,

I am typesetting a horn part from a piano concerto, and I'm having  
difficulty with the "Cadenza" rests in the piece.  What I would like  
is a rest in the staff—it can be a 4-beat rest, like r1, a full- 
measure rest, like R1, or a long multi-measure rest, with the  
horizontal bar; I don't really care which kind.  Above that, center- 
aligned, should be a fermata, and aligned above that, the word  
"Cadenza".

I haven't found any way to get an acceptable result.  I'm using  
LilyPond 2.10.15.  If I use r1^\markup{...}, I get the text fine, but  
the rest is not center-aligned in the measure.  If I use R1^\markup 
{...}, the measure is condensed to just the horizontal size of the  
rest, and the text sticks out of the measure.  (Using \fatText had no  
effect on this.)  Can anyone tell me how to get the output I  
described above?  Thanks!
