The Romeros...

Last week, San diego symphony summerpops showcased "The Romeros family"...

Romero family is amazing.. They are playing spanish classical guitar since last 4-5 generations.. and best part is every musician in the family plays great... This is the only family in whole world that has such a long history... also they are not only the musicians.. but they manufacture their guitar themselves... Infact they used to have a huge guitar store...

Here are some youTube links.. When you watch these videos, look at their right hand fingers.. the way all five fingers move on guitar is simply fabulous..

- first one
- second one
- third one , same flavor , once again

In the summerpops, they played the third song... Infact I witnessed 3 generations on stage... It was an awesome experience..

Also here is a small documentory about them...

KT... I am falling in love with her.. she is fabulous.. simply amazing... she is one-man (one-woman) team, playing whole orchestra by herself.. just unbelievable..

My music buddy Hitesh is in the same hyperstate as me.. Being guitarist, I think he understands KT better than me.... so what :) ?? Woo hooo !!!

Listen to her "Black horse and cherry tree" song. The original version is here ..it sounds okay.. not bad.. neither really impressive... right :) ? But... I like her not only because of her tunes, composition or voice... but.. she is great performer.. This is what I mean.. check her "One man (one-woman) performance" .. or.. "this one" ....damn.. she is gifted !!

"Her public debut".. I love the ending on this one !!

"Same one with plain guitar".. Woo hoo !!

..and same is the case with "Suddenly I see", "Michael Jackson's I want you back", "Heal over".. !!

Hitesh bhai.. when can I stop by for some guitar lessons :) ?
