Clarinet concerto

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

A clarinet concerto is a concerto for clarinet and orchestra (or concert band). Albert Rice has identified a work by Giuseppe Antonio Paganelli as possibly the earliest known concerto for solo clarinet; its score appears to be titled "Concerto per Clareto" and may date from 1733. It may, however, be intended for soprano chalumeau.^[1] There are earlier concerti grossi with concertino clarinet parts including two by Johann Valentin Rathgeber, published in 1728.^[2] Relatively few clarinet concertos, or wind instrument concertos generally, were produced during Romantic music era, but the form became more popular in the twentieth century. Famous clarinet concertos include those by Mozart, Carl Maria von Weber, Carl Nielsen, Copland, and the more recent ones by Einojuhani Rautavaara and Kalevi Aho.
