I love guitar duos! Especially the Assads. Group playing is always lacking in classical guitar and I would much rather play with another than be alone on stage. But that's just me and I'm gonna have to suck it up for my student recital in a few weeks. XD
Did you know.... that A. Piazzola composed this whole work ( the Tango Suite) dedicated to these guys???? That is why this guys, not only play as one, this piece for them goes a bit beyond that that.... it is more than blood, it is more than heart, it is more than Piazzola being there with them pouring his soul into their interpretation... IT IS JUST SIMPLY TANGO...
The others can play faster... but these Assad are increadible. You can hear music in every note. They are one of the few guys who makes me pay more attention to he music rather the technique.
The little pause at 4:53 is sublime. These guys really convincingly capture an "improvised" feel to this. All the little ornaments and flourishes sound "off the cuff" despite being written. They take a lot of liberties but everything works beautifully. I wonder what Piazzolla thought of their performance. Did he ever hear them play this? Anyway, beautiful musicality and virtuosity!!!
Piazzolla in fact wrote the Tango Suite after hearing the Assad brothers in Paris 1983 playing an arrangement of another Piazzolla's work... and he was present in the first public performance of the Tango Suite, very happy and enthusiastic of Assad's version.
I had a video with Duo Assad's recording took out of You Tube because the copyright issues. It was not a video exactly, it was just the mp3 of a D. Scarlatti played by them ( very beautiful, as always )which I composed a video with some Goya's pictures.
The Company which has the copyright didn't like it, and I had to change the music of the video.
jajaja ... para ser principiantes esta muy bien yo creo que deverian escuchar al duo de joel y mauricio para copiarles algunos ... arreglos y cosas por el estilo....yo creo que son buenos ... ponganse en contacto con nosotros haber si los podemos ayudar... tengo algunas sugerencias .. y yo creo q deverian revisar la partitura felicitaciones por el esfuerzo.
cara, eu entendi direito? você chamou o duo assad de principiantes? espero ter entendido errado, pois se foi isso mesmo que você falou, acaba de falar a maior besteira do mundo, se o duo assad é principiante no violão, você não faz nem idéia do que é musica, procure mais informações sobre os dois na internet
Oye con todo el respeto, yo creo que la ejecutan a la perfeccion, he visto mucho interpretes y estos han sido los mejores hasta ahora, subi tu video y muestra uno mejor....te reto!!!
no es nada simpatico tu comentario ninho. mejor callate y ponte a estudiar y respeta a los virtuosos, que casi en su totalidad son ademas grandes personas. lo ves tan lejos que ni cuenta te das.
Vi seu video tocando na sala da biblioteca da sua cidade (na plateia tava, basicamente, a famila, não?). COntinue assim, que voce, no auge da carreira, pode até tocar na biblioteca da cidade vizinha. Mas pelo menos vê se coloca um pouco de dinamica da proxima vez, ta?
Brillante performance de la obra del maestro Astor Piazzolla (nac. 1921 Mar del Plata, Argentina). These sounds bring the spirit of urban Buenos Aires. Saludos.

Of "Tango Suite"? You can get their "Plays Piazzolla" CD. A different version is also on their "Latin American Music for Two Guitars" CD.
