Summary/Abstract: Henry Dutilleaux belongs to the group of French musicians who worked in the second half of the 20th century and recorded a new stage in the evolution of French composition after C. Debussy, M. Ravel and the members of the Group of Six.Through his musical works, the maestro brought a new and original breath to the evolution of modern technique, constitutingthe universal avant-garde of the era. One of Henry Dutilleux’s early works is the Sonatina for Flute and Piano, which denotesthe composer’s academic orientation in approaching genres and a personal view on the sonatina genre and form. In this article, H. Dutilleaux’s Sonatina is analyzed from the point of view of the evolution of the genre and form. The three movements unfold attacca, with a smooth passage, in a permanent and consistent evolution of the discourse. The work is not only a successful composition, performed with knowledge and inspiration, it has become one of the important pieces in the universalflute chamber repertoire.
