Assad from that

Apparently Sergio and Odair Assad have only four videos posted to YouTube - a fact that surprised me (drop me a line if you find more). But those two videos are pretty remarkable. First is this four-hand guitar encore - does anyone know the piece they are playing? And the second, from 1997, features them playing the Andante and Allegro sections of Astor Piazzolla's "Tango Suite." There are also a couple of posts of the duo with Yo-Yo Ma: Menino and Zita.

And for audio, you can hear an Assad Brothers concert originally broadcast on NPR's Performance Today by the duo guitarist siblings here. There is also an amazing array of classical guitar music available as mp3 radio shows at this site, as well.

Then there is the Assad Brothers' unofficial web site.

Oh, yes, and we are presenting the Brothers Assad on November 11 at NEC's Jordan Hall.
