‘14 Years Ago’: Lácides Romero Performs in Cathedral, November 2001 - Columbiaby Rob Howard |
The Accordions Worldwide news for the week ending November 30th 2001 included an article announcing a concert at the cathedral in Montería, Columbia, to be given by Lácides Romero. In a country where the diatonic accordion and folk music are dominant, Lácides Romero has trod a different path, performing mainly classical music on the accordion. He continues to this day giving recitals and master classes, not only in Colombia but in other countries also. Long may he be an inspiration to accordionists in South America. Cathedral Concert – Colombia Colombian Accordionist Lácides Romero, will perform at the Montería Cathedral in Montería on December 1st. The concert will take place to celebrate the appointment of the new Bishop, Julio Vidal. Romero's program will include ‘Allemande and Gigue in G Major’, ‘Pasacalle con Variaciones’ (Handel), ‘Saltarella’ (Leybach) and ‘Slavonic Dance No 8’ (Dvorak). |
