Description:
Sir Eugene Aynsley Goossens (1893-1962) was an English conductor and composer. Besides his career as a conductor, Goossens was also a skilled composer, completing nearly seventy works including chamber pieces, orchestral works, and two full-length operas. In 1927 he composed his 'Oboe Concerto'. Originally written for his brother Léon's American debut, this 'Concerto in One Movement' for oboe and orchestra continues to be a standard concerto in the oboe repertoire. The concerto was written to showcase his virtuosic technique and lyrical musicality, and it effortlessly combines the two.
