 Concerti you WISH had been written
Author: David Spiegelthal ★2017
Date:   2004-07-14 15:14

This morning on my drive into work I was listening to a cassette (remember those, kids?) of Vaughan Williams' 6th Symphony, which has some very tasty licks for alto sax and for bass clarinet, and it got me to thinking about what an excellent orchestrator he was, as well as one of the finest composers of all time (IMHO) --- and how he wrote some nice soloistic stuff for instruments rarely heard in that capacity (e.g. his superb Tuba Concerto). This led me to fantasize about how nice it would be if certain composers had written concerti for various instruments not frequently written for...........Some examples I dreamed up:

Vaughan Williams: Concerto for Bass Clarinet and Orchestra
Prokofiev: Concerto for Tenor Saxophone and Orchestra
Samuel Barber (or maybe Howard Hanson?): Concerto for Alto Clarinet and Orchestra
Aram Khatchaturian: Concerto for Eb Clarinet and Orchestra
Alan Hovhaness: Concerto for Contrabass Clarinet and Orchestra

Any other fantasy concerto ideas out there?
