Featuring an all-Spanish program, this is the first time in over ten years that Maestro Romero has performed a full, solo recital in Southern California.
Presented by the Los Angeles Sound Foundation, Pepe Romero’s concert kicks off the Guitarra del Mar Concert Series at the Pasadena Presbyterian Church with fire, flair and guitar magic.
There are very few true living legends in the world of classical music, few who have sustained greatness and grown throughout their lives. Pepe Romero is such an artist. He has been honored by kings, heads of state, and major institutions-the encomiums continue to pour in. But to Romero, his most important contribution has been reaching the common man. He has communicated the richness and beauty of the classical guitar to millions of people throughout the world. He has, indeed, become an ambassador of classical music, and, correspondingly, of the classical guitar.
“Orchestral power and vocal lyricism!” –New York Times
“Pepe Romero makes his guitar talk to itself.” –Los Angeles Times
