Hello,Trog, and all. While I haven't seen the associated ballet, "El
sombrero de tres picos" is a great piece of classical music all by
itself, IMHO. The other ballet music, "El amor brujo" is equally
enjoyable. One other orchestral work "Noches en los jardines de España"
(especially with Alicia de Larrocha on piano) is also note-worthy.
Sincerely,
