Poulenc Duet for two clarinets, one in A, one in B-flat.
Krommer wrote several sextets in the same instrumentation as the Mozart K.
375 in E-flat that you mentioned. Some are available from Musica Rara.
How about the Mozart Adagio for five clarinets; i.e., 2 B-flats, and 3
basset horns.
Also the Mozart work for bassoon and two basset horns. The range of the the
two bassets are within the range of the B-flat clarinet. I don't recommend
this piece to be played that way because the character of the two basset
horns cannot be captured by the two clarinets. I played with Keith in
concert at three different locations, and it wowed the audience.
And finally there are the five Mozart trios for three basset horns.
Exquisite pieces.
Good luck.

Dear list,
I'm hoping you can help me find chamber works for two clarinets. The
overall orcehstration needs to be fewer than seven people. The
person who is in charge of programming is less apt to accept music by
living composers. Transcriptions (like Il Covegno, oringinally for
orch.) are not viable. So far, I have:
Ingolf Dahl - Five Duets (2 Cl)
Vincent Persichetti - Serenade No. 13 for two clarinets
Mozart - Five Divertimenti for Two Bb Clarinets and Bassoon - beautiful
pieces
Peter Schickele - Dances for three (2 Cl, Bn - based on the Mozarts)
Mendelssohn - Concertpieces 1 and 2 for Clarinet, Basset Horn, and Piano.
Ponchielli - Quartet for Flute, Oboe, Eb Clarinet, Bb Clarinet, and Piano.
Very fun, over-the-top, operatic, flashy piece.
Janacek - Mladi for Flute, Oboe, Bb Clarinet, Bass Clarinet, Bassoon, and
Horn
Mozart Serenade No. 11 for 2 Cl, 2 Bn, and 2 Hn
Beethoven Sextet for 2 Cl, 2 Bn, and 2 Hn
Thanks,
Sean
