Abstract. The article is devoted to the creative work of the little known in our country American composer George Antheil, in particular, to his First Sonata for Violin and Piano. Antheil’s personality is considered from the viewpoint of the European avant-garde of the 1920s. Analysing the composer’s technique, style and musical language the author concludes on the important trends established in the sonata: anticipation of the minimalism technique, rhythmic rotations, mechanicalness of musical language, carefully crafted pauses as musical space, etc. The above mentioned trends paved the way for the artistic conceptions by E. Var?se, John Cage, Ph. Glass, T. Riley et al.
