One of the most exciting and innovative guitar players performing today is Brazil's Badi Assad. A virtuoso whose technical ability never overshadows the visceral impact of her playing, Assad, is, quite simply, a wonder to behold.
On her third Chesky release, Echoes of Brazil, Badi pays homage to the trend-setting and boundary-breaking guitarists who influenced and shaped her style. Echoes is a historical anthology that illustrates the trajectory of rich hues and nuances that the guitar, the primary compositional instrument of Brazilian music, has affected in Brazilian culture. And, what's more, the impact of these songs has now stretched far beyond the borders of Brazil to be embraced by music-lovers around the world. Starting with Isaias Savio's "Batucada," and including works by Luis Bonfa, Baden Powell, and Badi's brother Sergio Assad, this disc is the most moving and tuneful history lesson you'll ever have.
Backed by an acoustic bass and two dynamic percussionists, Badi tackles a number of styles popular, traditional, classical and song structures choros, waltzes, proto-Bossa Novas, sambas and emerges as an equal to the greats she is honoring. A diverse and beautiful collection of Brazilian songs, Echoes of Brazil is both a glimpse into Brazil's musical past, and a look into its future: Badi Assad. (Source: elusivedisc.com)

5.0 out of 5 stars - extraordinary - classic beauty with a twist, April 17, 1999
By: A Customer
Badi Assad has converted me to her style of Brazilian music. Anyone who loves classical accoustic guitar music will love this cd. "Farewell" is the most haunting, perfectly played cut I have heard in years - It is worth the price of the CD for this cut alone.
5.0 out of 5 stars - Like the pleasure of a perfectly-prepared, exotic meal, June 24, 1998
By: lmturbee@syr.edu (New York State)
I know of very little music that I can listen to in a variety of contexts and still get pleasure out of it like the music of Badi Assad. Sit alone or with someone, turn the lights off, relax and be taken away by complexities of tone and rhythm that are nevertheless so easy to swallow. Or turn it on while you're thinking hard about some program or essay you're writing, letting it wash around you as you concentrate. And by all means, have it playing when you serve that exotic meal to your loved one, candles lit, the aroma of gently fried garlic in the air. Delicious!
4.0 out of 5 stars - Pleasure and Grace, July 4, 2009
By: Karl W. Nehring (Ostrander, OH USA)
Brazilian guitarist Badi Assad offers an overview of Brazilian guitar music on this CD, accompanied by acoustic bass and percussion, and recorded in very clean sound by Chesky engineer Bob Katz. Not music you are likely to play every day, but when you are in the mood for Brazilian guitar, Echoes of Brazil provide an extremely satisfying 47 minutes of pleasure and grace.
