Event Details

Come out for the Brasil Guitar Duo!

From Classical, World and Jazz music, Riverside Fine Arts Association is known for its unique programming and offers a concert experience unlike any other you will find in Jacksonville and the surrounding area. Concert evenings always include a complimentary pre-concert and post-concert reception, as well as an artist exhibit from local area visual artists. Riverside Fine Arts Association seeks out music and art that is best experienced in the intimate setting of our venue. There is also a chance to meet both the visual artists and the concert musicians during the evening.


Brasil Guitar Duo a 2006 winner of the Concert Artists Guild International Competition, and hailed by Classical Guitar magazine for its “maturity of musicianship and technical virtuosity,” is equally at home on a classical or a world-music series. Its innovative programming features a seamless blend of traditional and Brazilian works, resulting in a full global touring schedule and a growing catalogue of critically acclaimed recordings. The Duo has appeared internationally on major concert series and at festivals in Cuba, Germany, England, South Korea, Colombia, Brazil, Austria, Panama, Poland, and Bermuda. Recent and upcoming U.S. engagements include recitals at venues in New York, Santa Barbara, Miami, Houston, Dallas/Fort Worth, St. Louis, Tucson, Portland, Nashville, San Jose, and Oakland.

Committed to performing new chamber music employing the guitar, the Duo joined cellists Yo-Yo Ma and Carlos Prieto in the October 2014 world premiere of El arco y la lira, a work for two cellos and two guitars by the esteemed Cuban composer Leo Brouwer. On the same program—a highlight of the sixth annual Festival Leo Brouwer in Havana—the Duo gave the Cuban premiere of Brouwer’s Sonata de Los Viajeros, which they had presented in its U.S. premiere the previous month and recorded for a Naxos CD of Brouwer’s complete works for two guitars.
