  The Ensemble Sospeso - Henri Dutilleux
Dutilleux was born into an artistic family; a great-grandfather, Constant Dutilleux, was a painter and friend of Delacroix and Corot, and his maternal grandfather, Julien Koszul, was a composer, organist and lifelong friend of Faure.
Dutilleux has a tendency not to expose a theme in its definitive state from the beginning, distinguishing this process of progressive growth from cyclic form, where the theme is determined from the start.
Dutilleux is very concerned about the physical appearance of a score; his manuscripts are marvels of calligraphy, and there is a strong visual stimulus behind certain passages in his works.

 Henri Dutilleux - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Henri Dutilleux (born January 22, 1916 in Angers, France) is one of the most important French composers of the second half of the 20th century, producing work in the tradition of Maurice Ravel, Claude Debussy, and Albert Roussel, but in a style distinctly his own.
Some of Dutilleux's trademarks include very refined orchestral textures, fluid and intricate rhythms, a preference for atonality and modality over tonality and "reverse variation" by which a theme is not exposed immediately but rather revealed gradually, appearing in its complete form only after a few partial, tentative expositions.
Dutilleux later wrote Mystère de l'Instant (for cymbalum and chamber orchestra, 1989), Les Citations (for oboe, harpsichord, double bass and percussion, 1991), The Shadows of Time (for orchestra and children voices, 1997) and Sur le Même Accord (for violin and orchestra, 2002 - dedicated to Anne-Sophie Mutter).

 Dutilleux, Henri (1916 - )   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
The French composer Henri Dutilleux, although individual in his approach, nevertheless follows the traditions of Ravel and Debussy, seeking clarity and economy in his musical language and an enjoyment of varied timbres.
In his two symphonies Dutilleux explores novel combinations of sound, in the first contrasting groups and single instruments and in the second dividing the orchestra into a smaller chamber group, separate from the larger body.
Similar qualities are to be heard in the chamber music of Dutilleux, with its idiomatic use of wind instruments, and in the string quartet of 1976, Thus the Night.

Henri Dutilleux has always resisted classification as a composer, and the cryptic style he often adopts when discussing his own works has not done much to help listeners grasp the essence of his art.

Dutilleux began his musical training at the local music school in Douai but in 1933 left for Paris, where he would spend five years at the Conservatory studying composition with Henri Büsser.

When Henri Dutilleux was a young man, he made a series of jejune career errors.
