Pepe Romero by Walter Aaron Clark

Presents the memories and insights of a great musician-a master of the guitar whose performances and exuberant, caring nature have brought joy to many around the world.
Manuel de Falla said that in Granada he felt himself to be at the center of the world, and as we learn from this fascinating book, Pepe Romero has the gift of putting Spanish music at the center of the worldThank you, Pepe, for making our music sound so loud and so strong. * Elena García de Paredes de Falla, President of the Fundación Archivo Manuel de Falla *
In the universe of the six strings, I have had the great fortune to meet this great artist, now a close friend and one with whom I have enjoyed participating in several festivals around the world. I have been able to enrich myself by learning from his phrasing, his sensitivity, and the quality of his sound. Through this remarkable memoir, Pepe will continue to make us all fall in love with his way of understanding guitar music. * Víctor Monge ("Serranito"), flamenco guitarist *
Pepe was born with an unparalleled virtuosity that has amazed the world. His insightful reflections reveal how this has allowed composers writing works for him to focus only on the music itself and not on the physical limits of the instrument and the instrumentalist. He has given everything to us disciples: his music, his technique, and his infinite kindness. * Vicente Coves, President of the European Guitar Foundation *
