Quoting from "The Oboe Works of Benjamin Britten" [Sotos G. Djiovanis, Florida State University] which you can find here:
Quote:
Benjamin Britten’s Temporal Variations was written for oboe and piano in 1936.
The work was completed on 12 December 1936 and premiered on 15 December of the
same year in London’s Wigmore Hall. The performers were Natalie Caine and Adolph
Hallis. Britten’s diary entry from this day indicates that he was pleased with the work.
However the Temporal Variations was not performed again until 1980, the year in which
it was published.
Leon Goosens was born in 1897, and would have been 83 years old in 1980. Even though he made late recordings, I don't think any were made when he was in his eighties.
