Concerto for Vagabonds and Orchestra was composed in 2019 for Ensemble Silakbo and Antwerp Symphony Orchestra as part of the SoundMine project, under the direction of composer and conductor Wim Henderickx.

Written for four soloists — clarinet, violin, cello and piano — and symphony orchestra, the concerto developed from Clarke's close artistic collaboration with Ensemble Silakbo, for whom he served as composer-in-residence. The work brings the ensemble's distinctive chamber formation into an orchestral setting, placing four independent instrumental voices in dialogue with the larger symphonic forces.
