Francis Poulenc composed his Flute Sonata in 1957 and it is now perhaps the most widely played of all flute sonatas. It encompasses a wide range of moods, from a 'melancholic' first movement to a hauntingly beautiful Cantilena, and a playful and energetic Presto to finish. The sonata is very popular in recitals and the individual movements are often used as examination pieces.
