Cadenza bar

Hello everyone.
I have to recreate this bar and I don’t know how to do it.
If I do it as a 12/4 bar, how do I do the divisions afterwards? Or should I do it as a free bar?

It is really 3 x 4/4 bars in aggregate.
So, shift-M 4/4|4/4|4/4 will do it. (hide the resulting time signature using the properties panel.
