May I add to the long list of excellent recordings...Gordon Hunt, Albrecht Mayer and Robin Williams, the first in C minor and the latter two in D minor...I think the C minor version misattributed to Benedetto was the standard version in the US several decades ago (at least it was when I first learned it). I didn't even know there was a D minor version.

The D minor version with the optional Bach ornamentation is excellent and I prefer it, but I played the old C minor version so many times (it was a standard for county ensemble auditions) that in some cases I prefer the slow movement ornamentation contained in that version.

I enjoy playing both versions! But the key of D is clearly more intrinsic to the oboe harmonically. I've seen the Bach double for oboe and violin in both keys as well but the one that I've always seen recorded is the C minor version. Again, the D minor version is a lot easier to play..those D-Eb trills are not ideal in the C minor version!
