Trois mouvements perpétuels
Trois mouvements perpétuels (sometimes referred to as Mouvements perpétuels) is a short three-movement suite for solo piano by the French composer Francis Poulenc, premiered in Paris in December 1918, when Poulenc was aged 19 and a protégé of Erik Satie. The work is dedicated to the artist Valentine Hugo and was first performed by Poulenc's piano teacher, Ricardo Viñes. From January 1918 to January 1921 Poulenc was a conscript in the French army, but his duties allowed him time for composition. He wrote the Trois mouvements perpétuels at the piano of the local elementary school at Saint-Martin-sur-le-Pré.
