The '''Clarinet Concerto''' is a composition for solo [[clarinet]] and [[orchestra]] by the American composer [[Ellen Taaffe Zwilich]]. It was commissioned by the Arlene and Dr. Milton D. Berkman Philanthropic Fund for the clarinetist [[David Shifrin]], to whom the piece is dedicated.  The concerto was first performed by Shifrin and twelve members of the [[Chamber Music Society of Lincoln Center]] in [[Alice Tully Hall]] on September 12, 2003.<ref name="Score">{{Cite web |last=Zwilich |first=Ellen Taaffe |authorlink=Ellen Taaffe Zwilich |year=2003 |title=Clarinet Concerto |publisher=[[Theodore Presser Company]] |url=https://www.presser.com/116-40532-clarinet+concerto.html |accessdate=July 27, 2020}}</ref><ref>{{cite web |last=Peleg |first=Ilan |title=The clarinet takes center stage in fall concerts |work=[[The Morning Call]] |date=September 11, 2003 |url=https://www.mcall.com/news/mc-xpm-2003-09-11-3484616-story.html |accessdate=July 27, 2020}}</ref>

==Composition==
In fall 2001, Zwilich had already sketched the first [[Movement (music)|movements]] of her Clarinet Concerto and was about to begin work on the second movement when news of the [[September 11 attacks]] broke. The composer subsequently decided to transform the second movement into an elegy for that day titled "Elegy: September 11." The concerto has a performance duration of approximately 28 minutes and is cast in four—all, except the second, untitled—movements.<ref name="Score" />

===Instrumentation===
The work is scored for solo clarinet and a small orchestra consisting of [[Western concert flute|flute]], [[oboe]], [[bassoon]], two [[French horn|horns]], [[cornet]], percussion, and [[String section|strings]].<ref name="Score" />

==Reception==
Peter G. Davis of ''[[New York (magazine)|New York]]'' wrote, "Ellen Taaffe Zwilich's 'Clarinet Concerto' would surely have turned out to be quite a different piece had not the fatal date arrived just as she was about to start work on the second movement." He added, "It's all done with the most skillful application and development of its musical materials – a score truly inspired by a tragic event and one that is likely to transcend it."<ref>{{cite web |last=Davis |first=Peter G. |title=Renée's Way |work=[[New York (magazine)|New York]] |date=November 11, 2002 |url=https://nymag.com/nymetro/arts/music/classical/reviews/n_7953/ |accessdate=July 27, 2020}}</ref>
