Performing Artscenter's Renée and Henry Segerstrom Concert Hall at the Segerstrom Center for the Arts

The world's preeminent guitar duo Sergio and Odair Assad return to showcase some of the most creative and exemplary voices in contemporary Brazilian guitar music with an eclectic and exhilarating show called The Assad Brothers' Brazilian Guitar Festival.

Sergio and Odair Assad will be joined by groove king Romero Lubambo, multi-instrumentalist master Celso Machado, and their own passion-stirring sister, vocalist and guitarist Badi Assad.

An evening at the Brazilian Guitar Festival promises a hot, open exchange among five of Brazil's most ferociously talented ambassadors. While simultaneously embracing and eschewing tradition, the musical emissaries will transport the audience to a sojourn in Rio through canorous, coruscating, pulsating music that will render the ears alive with the enthusiasm and passion of the sounds of Brazil.
