Evangelos and Liza - A truly remarkable husband-wife duo. They also are distinguished solo guitarists in their own rights. Not only are they fine technicians but their styles are, for the most part, "throwbacks" to an earlier era of "romantic" playing with an emphasis on the subtle and expressive use of tone color, vibrato, rubato etc. most recently associated with such great past artists as Segovia and Micha Elman.
