Brasil Guitar Duo

Brasil Guitar Duo I missed the Brasil Duo’s 2010 San Francisco recital and won’t make that mistake again. The buzz afterward was amazing for the winners of the 2006 Concert Artists Guild International Competition. The Duo is equally at home on a classical or a world music series, and its innovative programming features a seamless blend of traditional and Brazilian works. Here is a YouTube video of them playing Ástor Piazzolla’s Zita.

Scott Cmiel is Chair of the guitar and musicianship departments at the San Francisco Conservatory of Music Preparatory Division and Director of the guitar program at San Francisco School of the Arts.
