The Assad Family Presents A Brazilian Songbook

On Saturday April 5th, the Celebrity Series of Boston will present the Assad Family as they join together to perform works from Brazil.

Sergio and Odair Assad, long favorites of Celebrity Series audiences, bring the extended Assad family for an exciting program of Brazilian music. The brothers Assad first introduced three generations of The Assad Family to North America in 2004. Sérgio’s daughter Clarice is a budding composer, pianist and vocalist with several symphonic works to her name. And Carolina, Odair’s daughter, is a gorgeous vocalist with an innate feel for the rhythms of Brazil. With the passing of their father, Jorge, the Assads are touring as a quintet, exploring some of the most beautiful folk and pop music written by Brazil’s iconic composers, as well as music written by the Assads themselves.
