Igor Stravinksy in London - 1921

from Themes and Conclusions, page 231:

Goosens was a natural musician in a family of natural musicians, and he was a master of orchestral technique. I recall his performance of Le Sacre, in London in 1921, with pleasure (and Diaghilev’s jealously at a triumph that, even by reflection, was not his).
