These outstanding guitarists bring to their performance the highlight of the Brazilian guitar canon.
Even though the acoustic guitar is not originally a Brazilian instrument, it is indeed very much part of Brazilian music history. It is found in classical, folk and popular music. From Heitor Villa-Lobos, Paulo Bellinatti, Carlos Barbosa-Lima, Sergio e Odair Assad to Laurindo Almeida, Garoto, Baden Powell, Canhoto da Paraiba, Guinga, Toquinho, Rosinha de Valença, Egberto Gismonti, Yamandú Costa among numerous great others who make up the pantheon of Brazilian guitar.
On April 24 we will have the opportunity of experiencing a slice of the Brazilian guitar world.
