One of San Diego County's most famous classical music groups, Los Romeros, will perform a 60th anniversary concert on Sunday. It will be livestreamed from the Belly Up in Solana Beach.

What better way for San Diego to celebrate the reopening of arts and music and almost normal life than the re-emergence of one of the county’s most famous classical music groups?

The guitar quartet, Los Romeros, will perform a 60th anniversary concert Sunday. The musicians are world-renowned not only as the first guitar quartet, but also for the creation of an entirely new repertoire for guitars as a chamber ensemble. Although some of the players have changed over the past six decades, each guitarist remains a member of the Romero family to retain the title of "The Royal Family Of Guitar."

Los Romeros will perform a livestreamed concert from the Belly Up in Solana Beach Sunday at 2 p.m. Ticket information can be found at stellartickets.com
