Good for you, Mark, I took a brief look into Brymer, Pino and Stein who have extensive listings of cl music, but found very little mention of larger accompanying groups. Perhaps a close reading, Pino in particular, would help. Don

Joseph Haydn (1732-1809)
Konzert B-Dur fur Klarinetten and Orchester
Doppelkonzert Es-Dur fur zwei Klarinetten and Orchester
Doppelkonzert B-Dur fur zwei Klarinetten and Orchester
Dieter Klocker, Waldemar Wandel, Prager Kammerorchester
1997 ORFEO International Music GmbH, Munchen
I believe I found this CD at amazon.com. The titles are in German, exactly as they appear on the CD label. The enclosed text leaves some doubt as to whether these pieces are truly Haydn's work. However, they are all very beautiful, and sound very much like Haydn. I highly recommend this CD.

Most scholars find Klocker's "Haydn" attribution to be spurious (or at the least speculative) - Try searching the Klarinet Archives :

Both Mendelssohn pieces are for Soprano Clar in Bb & Bassethorn, if I remember correctly.
You may also look for Franz Anton Hoffmeister (2 Soprano clarinets + orchestra) and Etienne Solère (Bb Sop + C Sop? + orchestra), don´t know of the top off my head the names / catalogue numbers.

Both Mendelssohn pieces are scored for variant instrumentation.
I don't have the publisher (and haven't been able to find it) for the Franz Hoffmeister (1754-1812) Sinfonia Concertante so I didn't list it.
The Etienne Solere piece (1753-1817) is Sinfonia Concertante No. 1 in F Major. c. 1790, for 2 C clarinets, so I didn't list it, considering that few people can find C clarinets laying about. However, I just noticed that it can be played on Bb clarinet. Published by Chantry, edited by Georgina Dobree, includes piano parts for both C and Bb.

As a possible addition to the excellent list submitted by Mark C., let me mention the Rondo Concertante for Two Solo Clarinets and Band by Burnet Tuthill, (Sumco 5637 - Copyright 1963 by Summy-Birchard Co.). I believe the price for score and parts for symphonic band is $9.00 US. Earl

One more for the list: thinking back to my high school days over a quarter of a century ago, I remember reading through a Concerto in B-flat for Two Clarinets and Orchestra by Carl Stamitz. I don't have the publisher information in mind, but I found it by browsing the stacks at the UC Santa Barbara Music Library, and most large university libraries should have it or be able to get it on interlibrary loan.

<br>Your memory is pretty good - it was originally for clarinet, violin, and orchestra but has been re-scored for 2 clarinets - Konzert fur zwei Klarinetten und Orchester. The publisher is H. Litolff's Verlag (30389)/Edition Peters (8018). Edited by Walter Lebermann, arranged for 2 clarinets and piano by Theo Molich.

Is the Telemann Double Chalumeaux Concerto in print? I have a copy for two clarinets and piano, and played it with an orchestra in the 1970s. Klocker recorded it then as well. Its brilliant.

Dear Leah,
there are lots of fine pieces for two clarinets and orchestra. Check out Krommer, op.35 first.
All the best.
Sincerely, David Smeyers
