Caballero, who last year won first prize in the prestigious Naumburg International Competition made a serious claim to personal dominion over the Concierto de Aranjuez of Joaquín Rodrigo.In the fiery first movement, Caballero displayed ardent passions that have come to characterize music from Spain.
