Description
Created in 1943 as part of the four exam pieces for the Paris Conservatoire, this charming Sonatine for flute and piano is part of the early works of Henri Dutilleux, a French Composer following the paths of Maurice Ravel and Claude Debussy.
Even though the composer was later quite critical about it, this Sonatine, which lasts 9 minutes, is the most recorded of his compositions and has become a standard in the flute repertoire. Composed of three movements, it begins with a tempo "Allegretto", followed by a part more "Andante" and finishes with a cadence "Animé".
