Brasil Guitar Duo Concert

The 2022/2023 International Series is presented in part
with support from the Roy Minoff Family Fund.

The Brasil Guitar Duo, hailed by Classical Guitar magazine for its “musicianship and technical virtuosity,” is equally at home on a classical or a world-music series or performing a concerto with orchestra. João Luiz and Douglas Lora met in São Paulo as teenage guitar students and their successful partnership of over twenty years results from their innovative programming— which features a seamless blend of traditional and Brazilian works—leading to a busy global touring schedule and a growing catalog of critically acclaimed recordings garnering two Latin Grammy nominations.

The 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 combines a broad repertoire of classical guitar duos (Bach, Sor, Scarlatti, Rameau, Debussy, etc.) with such traditional Brazilian dance forms as choro, samba, maxixe, and baião.

They both have a gorgeous tone, rock-solid rhythm, beautiful phrasing... This is great playing.” American Record Guide
