Yes, there are a number of versions of it, it is one of his most famous pieces and has been recorded multiple times. I believe it first appears on this album: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fuente_y_caudal

There is also this compilation album featuring it as the title track:

Hard to come up with 10

Falla
Albeniz
Granados
Turina
Ernesto Halffter
Roberto Halffter
Rodrigo
Torroba

I suppose I could include Soler and Arriaga.

Balada shows up on lists of Spanish composers, but I consider him an American composer.

Some composers I'd like to hear more from:

Montsalvatge
Suriñach
Sarasate

Gerhard's music is certainly impressive, but just doesn't speak to me.

[Dry Brett Kavanaugh]

Phenomenal album!

I think my favorite is the live one from the video I posted, (I'm not sure if that version can be found on a recording) I'm sure there are some versions I haven't heard. The one from the compilation album mentioned in post #47 is also very good.
