The Brasil Guitar Duo is hailed by Classical Guitar magazine for its “maturity of musicianship and technical virtuosity.” Douglas Lora and João Luiz met in São Paulo as teenage guitar students and their successful partnership of over twenty years is the result of their innovative programming.

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 classical guitar repertoire with traditional Brazilian dance forms.

This will be their first appearance in our series.
