  • The 2000 performance available on YouTube omits the sung Introducción in No.1 (only the orchestral prelude is performed). Spanish Wikipedia says a critical edition of the score by Ramón Sobrino was used for this perfromance. However, the Introducción is present both in the 1858 libretto and in the Martín 1858/9 edition.
