- Summary:
- Spanish émigré guitarist Celedonio Romero gave his American debut performance on a June evening in 1958. In the 60 years since, the Romero Family-Celedonio, his wife Angelita, sons Celin, Pepe, and Angel, as well as grandsons Celino and Lito-have become preeminent in the world of Spanish flamenco and classical guitar in the United States. Walter Aaron Clark's in-depth research and unprecedented access to his subjects have produced the consummate biography of the Romero family. Clark examines the full story of their genius for making music, from their outsider's struggle to gain respect for the Spanish guitar to the ins and outs of making a living as musicians.
