Some musicians are able rise to the peak of a musical form; a very few musicians can originate a whole new art form. The Romeros, who have been called “The Royal Family of Guitar”, have achieved both!


“Collectively, they are the only classical guitar quartet of real stature in the world today; in fact, they virtually invented the format.”
