There are several versions here on You Tube of this popular Spanish song, beloved of past prima donnas, and they include recordings by Amelita Galli-Curci, Conchita Supervia and Deanna Durbin. However, none are quite like this, given as an encore by Michael Aspinall at his New York Town Hall recital in 1987. The pianist is David Triestram.
