the romeros Debbie Reynolds royal family of guitar
Known to millions as ‘The Royal Family of the Guitar,” The Romeros were founded by the legendary Celedonio Romero with his sons Celin, Pepe and Angel in 1960. With the introduction of Celin’s son, Celino in 1990 and Angel’s son, Lito in 1995, The Romeros now encompass three generations of concert artists. This unparalleled family ensemble has become the international emissary for guitar chamber music, their name synonymous with style, elegance, and technique. To have so many virtuosi of the same instrument in one family is unique in the world of musical performance, and in the realm of classical guitar it is absolutely unprecedented.

What becomes a legend most? Well, everything, if you’re Debbie Reynolds and can look back on a career spanning more than six decades. Mary Frances Reynolds arrived in Hollywood in 1948 as a teenaged movie extra (in June Bride). But MGM spotted her, signed her to a seven-year contract (at $300/week!) started her off with Fred Astaire and Red Skelton in Three Little Words, and the rest is celluloid history, from Singin’ in the Rain with Gene Kelly and Donald O’Conner) to The Unsinkable Molly Brown (Oscar nomination) – not to mention her marriage to teen idol Eddie Fisher, which produced both daughter Carrie and one of Hollywood’s great scandals. But there was Broadway, too (Annie Get Your Gun, Woman of the Year), Las Vegas, and lots of television, from its early days (A Date with Debbie) right up to the present (Bobbi Adler on Will and Grace). Today, at 78, Debbie Reynolds is, as she has always been, America’s Sweetheart.
