The famed Brazilian-born Sergio and Odair Assad, acclaimed for their brilliance
in the classical, folk, jazz, and Latin repertoires, have been called “the best two-guitar team in
existence” (Washington Post). In this program, they explore the
rhythmic similarities that tie Middle Eastern music (their ancestral
roots) with the music of Brazil. Joining the Assad Brothers are the
hypnotic Lebanese singer Christiane Karam, percussionist Jamey Haddad,
and pianist/singer Clarice Assad. Their concert features modern and
ancient Lebanese texts set to new music by Sergio and Clarice Assad.
