Villanelle, FP 74, by Francis Poulenc is a piece of chamber music composed in 1934 for recorder and piano. The work was commissioned by the Australian Louise Hanson-Dyer, who inserted it into a collection of pieces for piano and recorder (entitled Pipeau).
Because of its modesty, this piece is rarely performed. The instrument for which it is written, the recorder, deprives it of a real notoriety. It is not mentioned in the catalog of works of the composer established by the biographer Henri Hell.
A typical performance lasts about 2 minutes.
