Recorded by Anne de Dadelsen for Rimaphon in the 1970s (issued on CD in 1984).

Publication first announced in Monatsbericht (1861), p.51.

Published also by Choudens (plate A.C. 2027) in 1871 (as Caprice espagnol - Publication noted in the Bibliographie de la France 2e série, 70e année, 26 Août 1871, p.154, r.234.), but see WorldCat which identifies it (hopefully correctly?) as Op.79); and a further C.F. Peters edition in 1873.

Also released in an edition by Berlin: Verlags-Anstalt Hymnophon in 1915 (Monatsbericht (1915), p.180).
