La Santa Espina was first recorded in 1907 by the
cobla La Principal de Peralada and is always included in all recording compilations of the best and most popular sardana songs. Due to its popularity and symbolic relevance, it has been also performed by many musicians other than classic sardana bands. More recently, it has been also interpreted in different styles by Catalan artists like
Marina Rossell and
Toti Soler. == References ==
