An Evening of Classical Guitar and Traditional Brazilian Music with
Internationally Celebrated Recording Artists JoÃ£o Luiz and Douglas Lora

"Brazil has the distinction of producing the best guitar duos. From the legendary Duo
Abreu to the Assad Brothers, the tradition continues with the Brasil Guitar
Duo." With this statement, famed virtuoso Paulo Bellinati christened this young ensemble,
charted its lineage and proclaimed its place in the guitar universe, a position further solidified
by the Brasil Guitar Duo with victories at the 2006 Concert Artists Guild International Competition
and major competitions in Brazil & Germany. JoÃ£o Luiz and Douglas Lora have been performing
together for over ten years, perfecting an effortless performance style. The duo has toured
extensively including performances with the Orquestra Jovem Tom Jobim and the Orquestra
Municipal de Braganca. The Brasil Guitar Duo has developed an extensive repertoire of
classical guitar duos (Bach, Sor, Scarlatti), and in recent years has broadened its aesthetic to
encompass the traditional music of its native land such as samba, maxixe, choro and baiÃ£o. In
this way, the players are not only ambassadors for the guitar but also for the sounds of Brazil.
