Brasil Guitar Duo In Concert
Saturday November 17, 2012 from 8:00pm - 10:00pm
Green Room, San Francisco War Memorial Building
401 Van Ness Ave
San Francisco, California 94102 Get Directions
After a resounding success here in 2010, the Brasil Guitar Duo returns to San Francisco. "Moving with versatility through the classical and popular universes, they show maturity, talent, and perfect technique...unmatched in their execution of intricate Brazilian rhythms." -Brazilian guitarist and composer, Paolo Bellinati

Brasil Guitar Duo, a 2006 winner of the Concert Artists Guild International Competition, and hailed by Classical Guitar magazine for its "maturity of musicianship and technical virtuosity," is equally at home on a classical or a world-music series. Its innovative programming features a seamless blend of traditional and Brazilian works, resulting in a full global touring schedule and a growing catalogue of critically acclaimed recordings.

Brasil Guitar Duo actively strives to expand the repertoire for two guitars, with Lora contributing works of his own and Luiz arranging both classical and Brazilian music. Appearing frequently in diverse non-traditional spaces, the Duo brings a broad repertoire of classical guitar duos (Bach, Sor, Scarlatti, Debussy, etc.) combined with the traditional music of its native land (choro, samba, maxixe, and bai ̄o).

For the past 30 years, the Assad Brothers have represented the gold standard for guitar duos. The Brasil Guitar Duo is the heir apparent, combining an energetic and subtle touch with contemporary swing.
