'Il Convegno' (in Italian 'the meeting' or the 'appointment') for two clarinets and piano was composed by Amilcare Ponchielli in 1857. 'Il Covegno' is in three sections, linked by cadenzas and other connective issues: a genial Allegro, a Duet of operatic lyricism and an Allegretto scherzoso that evidences the virtuosity of the soloists. The work became immensely popular and was subsequently published in several different arrangements.
Italian arranger Andrea Mastroeni arranged this tremendous showcase for the two clarinets with accompaniment of a Symphonic Band.
