...A player with a a wide background of musical knowledge and experience, voracious and un prejudiced... a true professional... distinguished not only by his fine instrumental technique but also by the strenght and warmth of his style. He looks, sees and listens, absorbing what appears useful, and taking note of all the rest...
His repertoire covers all types of guitar music, from well-estabilished favourites to the strikingly unconventional. As an interpreter his art has often been placed at the service of revealing new compositions, to wich he has quietly given 'first performances' always with a high sense of professional responsability.
But his musical activity is not limited to concert performances. His radio broadcast dedicated to the guitar are examples of clarity, obiectivity and professional integrity. Besides drawing timely attention to the authentic non-sectarian characteristics of the guitarist's musical movement, they have also created a new 'spoken' style of guitar magazine.
Angelo Gilardino

I have had an occasion to work with Antonio De Rose and have so appreciated his ability, both as a teacher and as theoist of the instrument, that I have asked him to make a substantial contribution to the guitar volume in my new series of books on music teaching.
I have been even more impressed by the quality of his playing, the transparency of his technique, and his stylistic insights into the compositions I have heard him perform.
…Now that the guitar is being played at many different levels of competente,  and reaching ever wider audiences, there is a great need for instrumental players and teachers  like Antonio De Rose. The problem is they are hard to come by.
Boris Porena

I have  known Antonio De Rose as a musician for many years, and I hold him in high esteem. He has always aroused admiration for his musical talent, his analytic intelligence and his critical commitement, all qualities directed towards the goal of estabilishing a serious role for the guitar in the musical world.
Ruggero Chiesa

In Santiago de Compostela Antonio De Rose has always shown a lively interest and enthusiasm for music in general and for the guitar in particolar. I notice with pleasure that his interest has increased over the years. His recent pieces of research and interesting radio broadcast also bear witness to this.
José Tomas
