SÉRGIO & ODAIR ASSAD

2018-2019 RECITALS

As performers, these two play like the close brothers they are. They pick up instantly on the other’s cues, respond as if intuitively and seem to be wired into the same operating system. What’s projected is a sort of ‘uber-guitar,’ two instruments and one brain.” The WashingTon PosT

“Sergio and Odair Assad have moved audiences and inspired guitarists around the world for over 30 years with revelatory performances of Latin American music and European classics, original compositions, deep musicality, and supple, almost telepathic, guitar duo performances.” san Francisco classical Voice

“The Assads’ virtuosity left the many guitarists in the crowd, including me, awe-struck. Their speed, their gorgeous tone, their uncanny musical memories (not a page of music appeared on the stage), and their ability to play thousands of notes without a single clinker, click or buzz are the stuff of guitar gods...an inspiring concert that celebrated the swooping energy of musical phrases and the irresistible beauty of the sound of two guitars” MilWaukee Journal senTinel

“THERE IS NO ONE LIKE THE ASSADS IN THE WORLD OF MUSIC FOR EITHER THE SCOPE OF THEIR INTERESTS OR THE DEPTH OR THE

MUSICIANSHIP OR TECHNICAL ABILITIES.” Seattle poSt
