It is said that, after Mozart, Weber was the first major composer to write distinguished music for the solo clarinet and, possibly through his friendship with the outstanding clarinettist Heinrich Joseph Baermann (1784-1847), he so well understood the nature of the instrument that, some say, no composer since has written for it more sympathetically.
As a result of hearing Heinrich Baermann give the first performance of Weber's Concertino for clarinet and orchestra, Op.26, at a concert in Munich on 5 April 1811, the King of Bavaria commissioned from Weber another two concertos for Baermann. The first of these, in F minor was finished six weeks later and first performed on 13 June when, to quote the composer '...Baermann gave a quite superb performance...'. Publication was delayed until 1824 and significant differences between the autograph score and the first edition indicate that Weber changed the solo part in the copy he sent for engraving, which is lost. A comparison of the solo part enclosed with the orchestral parts and the independently engraved solo part printed above the piano score in the reduction allows a fairly good reconstruction of the original master and a "definitive version" of the solo part as Weber intended.
  • Allegro
  • Adagio ma non troppo
  • Rondo, Allegretto
