Together, they are showing the world their musical talents all the while keeping the roots and traditions of old music. They continue doing their music in an old-fashioned but beautiful way.

The beginning of wonderful music.

According to their website, both Oscar and Pablo started young when they got accustomed to music.

Oscar started playing the instrument called pan flutes when he was just seven years old. He toured Europe during his teenage years and was able to capture the ears of his audience from Germany to Belgium.

Pablo, on the other hand, began playing string instruments when he was six.

He then put his heart into playing the traditional instrument known as the charango. Eventually, he mastered playing the guitar, mandolin, and drums.

Pablo was already performing folkloric music for thousands of audiences when he was just eight years old.

It only shows the kind of musical masters these brothers are.
