Professor of Music and Erma Mantey Faculty Fellow Carlo Caballero earned a PhD听from the University of Pennsylvania. He earned a BA, magna cum laude, at Pomona College. He teaches courses in the history of 18th-, 19th- and 20th-century music. His research has focused on music in France between 1870 and 1940, and he is particularly interested in aesthetics, dance history, hermeneutics and historiography.
Caballero is the author of 鈥淔aur茅 and French Musical Aesthetics鈥 (Cambridge University Press, 2001)听and co-editor of听Faur茅 Studies听(Cambridge, 2021). He has published articles in听Victorian Studies, 19th-Century Music, The Journal of the American Musicological Society听(JAMS),听The Journal of the Royal Musical Association and the International Review of Aesthetics and Sociology of Music. He was review editor for JAMS from 2007 to 2010, when he commissioned and shepherded over 70 long-form reviews to press. He chaired the musicology area听in 2010-2012, 2016-2017 and 2018-2019.
Caballero continues to write about Faur茅 and his contemporaries. He recently completed his long-awaited critical edition of Faur茅鈥檚 two Piano Quintets (Op. 89 and Op. 115); this edition is in press as a volume of 鈥淭he Complete Works of Gabriel Faur茅,鈥 published by the B盲renreiter-Verlag of Kassel, Germany.
