Sonatina for flute and piano William Mathias?

The Sonatina for flute and piano was composed by Malcolm Arnold, not William Mathias. Arnold composed the piece in 1951, and it was first performed on July 12, 1952, at Cheltenham Music Festival. The piece consists of three movements:

1. Allegro moderato

2. Adagio

3. Rondo: Allegro molto

The Sonatina for flute and piano is one of Arnold's most popular works, and it has been recorded by many notable musicians, including James Galway, Jean-Pierre Rampal, and Emmanuel Pahud. The piece is also a favorite of music educators, and it is often used as a teaching piece for students of the flute.

William Mathias, on the other hand, is a Welsh composer who has composed over 150 works, including symphonies, operas, concertos, and chamber music. He is one of the most respected and celebrated composers in Wales, and his works are performed all over the world. However, he did not compose the Sonatina for flute and piano.
