I am not sure if this is the right thread to ask to find "who was that composer" so forgive if this is the wrong place.  The composer I am looking is Spanish and neo-romantic style wise.  I believe he was born sometimes between the 1940's or 1960's and has written symphonies, cantatas, etc.  There was a CD of his orchestral music on Naxos that I quite enjoyed and want to relisten to but don't remember his name to find it.  I believe he is the conductor of a conservatory in Spain.  One of the works on the Naxos CD was an orchestral suite that dealt with ancient marvels in some way. 

Does anyone know who this is?  Naxos Spanish channel has way too many composers to find him without already knowing the name.

Why don't you do a Google search for Spanish composers born between those years?

They have quite a few living composers in the series - Jesús Villa-Rojo, Lorenzo Palomo, Alejandro Román, Tomás Marco? It's definitely not Leonardo Balada, who is not neo-romantic.

Woohoo I found it!  Salvador Brotons...this is the CD I liked:

Google did the trick once I realized Naxos had multiple Spanish Classics series and this was part of the 21st Century Spanish Classics line.  Without that detail too many irrelevant search results.

Brotons is on my "to be explored" list and I have that disc on my wishlist.
Spatial distortion is a serious problem deteriorating headphone listening.
Crossfeeders reduce spatial distortion and make the sound more natural
and less tiresome in headphone listening.
