The Romeros

Known as “The Royal Family of the Guitar,” the Romeros were founded in 1958 by the legendary Celedonio Romero and his sons, Celin, Pepe and Angel. Today’s quartet consists of three generations of concert artists.

The Romeros’ sterling reputation continues to be confirmed by repeated appearances with virtually every major symphony orchestra in the United States. And for more than 40 years, the Romeros have inspired composers to enrich the repertoire of a guitar quartet with orchestra.

Supported in part by Mark and Nancy Gilman.
