As part of this past weekend’s New York Guitar Festival, Newsday stopped by our Spanish guitar marathon and were full of accolades. Pepe Romero (pictured at right) performed and oversaw the event. And to believe Newsday, it was amazing:

The concert not only offered evidence of the instrument’s expressive power but showed beyond a doubt that classical guitar recitals can be pure, spine-tingling entertainment.

For more classical guitar, check out our upcoming concerts by musicians like Paul Galbraith and the Los Angeles Guitar Quartet. And be on the lookout for a video podcast of the Guitar Marathon on iTunes. We’ll let you know the second it’s up.

UPDATE: The Times enjoyed the Marathon, too.
