Ramo Music

"Heidi Hepler Ramo may be the improvvisatrice of our time."

"Wow!!! You've got to hear her to believe her. Images of crystal and calisthenics come to mind – and she perks up your ears relentlessly!"

"Ramo is a guitarist who commands a diversity of styles from classical to jazz with a solid technique, clear tone and expressive phrasing."

"Michéle is a multi-talented musician. It is rare to find an artist who plays two instruments as well as he does. It amazes me about his duality - his virtuosity on two incredibly different instruments and his ability to move between the guitar and violin while performing! Plus - he is a wonderful composer!"

"Ramo is the real thing! Stéphane Grappelli would've loved him!"

"I must say, Ramo is a unique musician on the instrument. Sensitive and concerned with the music. Since I play guitar - I think I can say he's a special player!"

"Ramo is a masterful guitarist."

"Michéle Ramo is a very fine musician and his guitar playing is outstanding. He is also a composer to be reckoned with."

"Ramo really moved me with the way he played. He is a great musician with lots of sensitivity and what an incredible right hand! And, Heidi is a tremendous singer - I am a fan!

"Heidi & Michéle...It's the most truthful music I've heard in years."

In a letter written to us Maestro Mottola writes:

"...Heidi's voice is marvelous and what a tremendous range she has! Michéle, your playing is superb and the sound of your guitar is beautiful!"

In another letter regarding our new CD releases guitar and voice duo 'Felicitá' and jazz violin 'Full Moon Above New York City' Tony wrote to us:

"You are both so talented and perfect together. In this day of mediocrity in the music business it is so refreshing to hear your music. Buona fortuna to you both."

I have never enjoyed voice and guitar more that when I hear Heidi and Michéle. A delightful combination of a great voice who can sing anything she wants and guitar playing of excellent quality, technique and musicality abound. A real Tour de Force!

"I love the way Michele takes his time and absolutely means everything he says musically - and, in the process draws the audience right in"

"Michele Ramo's amazing nylon string fingerstyle guitar playing, which takes the place of a full orchestra, provides melody lines, harmony, chords and walking bass lines all at the same time. He has developed a technically dazzling, exciting style that is amazing original, incorporating a broad range of guitar styles, invoking Gypsy caravans, Sicily, Andalusia, Brazil, Harlem and many points in between."

”Ramo bends notes, scrapes and chords with the technique of a vocal choir. In his hands, the guitar lights up like a symphony orchestra.”

"A guitarist of remarkable skills"

"Stupende qualitá musicali e virtuosistiche"

"The originality and virtuosity of Ramo & Heidi performed defies categorization."

"Ramo doesn't play music, he celebrates music".

"Unbelieveable, incredible how Ramo plays the guitar. Like a whole orchestra! I thought there was a bass player present..."
