THE 222 brings together two of today’s leading Brazilian jazz guitarists, Romero Lubambo and Chico Pinheiro. Lubambo is a prolific recording artist who, Jazziz wrote, “may be the best practitioner of his craft in the world today...[his] facility, creativity and energy are in a class all their own.” Hailing from Sa~o Paulo, Pinheiro is the most widely acclaimed Brazilian guitarist to emerge in the past two decades. An esteemed composer and bandleader, he’s collaborated with artists such as Placido Domingo, Herbie Hancock, Dianne Reeves, Brad Mehldau, Esperanza Spalding, Joyce and Chris Potter. Together they will feature intricate interplay, breathtaking improvisational flights and a sublime repertoire.
