UGA Presents
Sergio and Odair Assad

For 60 years, Brazilian brothers Sergio and Odair Assad have appeared worldwide as a duo of peerless sensitivity and musicality.

Over the course of their legendary careers, Brazilian-born brothers Sérgio and Odair Assad set the standard for innovation, ingenuity, and expression with the guitar. Their performances feature a compelling blend of musical styles, periods, and cultures including folk, jazz, Latin, and transcriptions of some of the greatest works from the classical music canon.

Their Ramsey Concert Hall performance March 10th is part of their farewell tour. They'll play pieces by Sergio Assad and a range of other Latin American music, including Heitor Villa-Lobos's "Brazilian Soul."

For tickets to the Assad brothers at Ramsey Concert Hall, visit PAC.UGA.EDU, or call the box office at (706) 542-4400.
