Sérgio and Odair Assad's "Jardim Abandonado" Nominated for Two Latin Grammy Awards
Congratulations to Sérgio and Odair Assad, whose most recent Nonesuch release, Jardim Abandonado has just been nominated for two Latin Grammy awards: Best Classical Album and Best Classical Contemporary Composition for Sérgio's "Tahhiyya li ossoulina." The ninth annual Latin Grammy Award ceremony will be broadcast live from Houston's Toyota Center, November 13, on the Univision network.
About this Album
Sérgio and Odair Assad perform wide-ranging work from their native Brazil, which the Los Angeles Times calls “a fertile fusion nexus for guitarists.” Says Sérgio, “Some people call this jazz, some call it avant-garde, but the Brazilians just call it popular music.” Included are works by Villa-Lobos, Pascoal, and works by Sérgio himself.
