"Conjunto's Most Hated"

About Me


I would like to share with you all some words that a very wise man once said,"The only thing is that nowadays I see something very bad among my fellow musicians. The fellow musicians we had back then weren't the same as today's musicians, for the simple reason that today they're not playing to please or because they like to play. No matter how much you may enjoy it, no matter how much you may enjoy playing and being a musician, I think it's very bad if you do it just to show another musician that you can play better than him. They don't think that way, those young people don't think of the public. Because in my career, I've seen them come, and I've seen them go. And I also came, and I'm also gonna go." - Tony De La Rosa.
