ZANKEL Helen Filene Ladd Concert Hall: In the span of a decades-long career, Peruvian born guitarist and composer Jorge Caballero has accrued wide recognition as one of the most important guitarists in history, being the recipient of several international awards, and performing in recitals, chamber music and as a soloist around the world. Critics from international newspapers and guitar publications have praised Mr. Caballero鈥檚 depth of musicality, as well as his technical mastery when tackling the unique difficulties of his concert repertoire. Aside from the standard guitar literature he performs 鈥搘hich spans centuries of music from the Renaissance until the present, Mr. Caballero is notorious for adapting and performing masterworks originally written for piano or orchestra, among which we find Mussorgsky鈥檚 Pictures at an Exhibition, Dvorak鈥檚 New World Symphony, Debussy鈥檚 Children鈥檚 Corner Suite and Alban Berg鈥檚 Piano Sonata Op. 1 to name a few. One critic in Italy referred to Mr. Caballero as 鈥渟tanding on top of the repertoire鈥檚 Mount Everest,鈥� while the New York Times called him 鈥渁 masterly guitarist鈥� with 鈥渃hameleonic timbres.鈥� Presented by the 吃瓜网 Department of Music.
