”’Keep”’ — Armando de Sequeira Romeu appears to meet Wikipedia’s notability criteria for musicians. He was a Cuban-American composer and bandleader documented in multiple independent sources, including university archives and music foundations. He composed for the Orquesta Cubana de Música Moderna, Chucho Valdés and Paquito D’Rivera, and worked in Tropicana for many years as composer and drummer. The composer is clearly a notable figure in the history of Cuban jazz and popular music. <!– Template:Unsigned –><small class=”autosigned”>— Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[User:AlanGaryFreed|AlanGaryFreed]] ([[User talk:AlanGaryFreed#top|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/AlanGaryFreed|contribs]]) 11:38, 12 October 2025 (UTC)</small> <!–Autosigned by SineBot–> |

*”’Delete”’ I can’t find any sources mentioning this musician beyond a couple of passing mentions. Someone more adept with Spanish language or Cuban sources may be able to find something but the names Armando de Sequeira Romeu and Armando Sequeira (which I think may have be another name he was known under) don’t give any hits in the Spanish language stuff I looked in. There appears to be a different Cuban musician/composer called [https://archive.org/details/cubanmusicfromto00orovi/mode/2up?q=%22Armando+Romeu+Jr%22 Armando Romeu Jr./Armando Romeu González] (1911-2002) who may have some notability and the current article seems to confuse them (eg Romeu Jr recorded with Nat King Cole).

*:I did find this obituary in a publication called [https://www.cibercuba.com/noticias/2023-02-01-u1-e196568-s27061-fallece-musico-cubano-armando-sequeira-hermano-zenaida-romeu CiberCuba]. It doesn’t seem reliable and is the only source I can find to say he performed with Nat King Cole.
