"A kind of wizardry lies within the playing of Sergio and Odair Assad they produce a supple, flawless unified sound." The New York Times

"Because they have been performing together for most of their lives, and because they play from memory, there is a lively interaction between them that creates the impression that they are improvising like a couple of virtuosic, perhaps even telepathic, jazz players." The New York Times

" the best two-guitar team in existence, maybe even in history no amount of anticipation could have prepared me for the Brazilian brothers' daringly flexible, eerily unanimous ensemble playing." The Washington Post
