Nadja Salerno-Sonnenberg, one of the most original and daring talents of the concert stage, and Sergio and Odair Assad, today's preeminent guitar duo, will join forces for this Atlanta premiere of their highly acclaimed program of gypsy and folk music. Their wide interpretation of the genre from gypsy jazz to flamenco rhythms offers music from Turkey, Hungary, Spain, Russia, Macedonia, and beyond. Salerno-Sonnenberg's career began in 1981 when she won the Walter W. Naumburg International Violin Competition and went on to win the 1983 Avery Fisher Career Grant, the 1988 Ovations Debut Recording Artist of the Year, and the 1999 Avery Fisher Prize. Her three United States tours with the Assads have revealed a unique chemistry, amusing interplay, and stunning virtuosity. The Assads international career has been highlighted by a 1998 Grammy, a 2001 Latin Grammy, and collaborations with other leading talents such as Yo-Yo Ma.
