Joe Trio will be the next performance presented in the SEAcoast 2017 season.
inda Gargis, SEA board
vice-president, said,
“Since its beginning 36
years ago, SEAcoast
Entertainment has brought
top quality performers to
Florence audiences.”
And this season continues
Saturday, Jan. 21, at 7 p.m.,
when The Joe Trio will
entertain with humor, versa-
tility and wit.
The three tremendously
musical, classically trained
players (piano, cello and
violin) will bring all a fresh
appreciation for the standard
concert repertoire (think
“Beethoven meets The Pink
Panther”) while entertaining
the audience with humor and
spontaneity.
The season is far from
over.
Celebrate Mardi Gras a
couple of days early with
“Bria Skonberg’s New
Orleans Jazz Band” during a
Sunday afternoon tea dance
L
Feb. 26 at 4 p.m.
Skonberg is a specialist in
classic American hot jazz.
She leads her band, wails on
the trumpet, and beautifully
vocalizes jazz standards with
energy and pizzazz.
SEA is providing Florence
fans of brass with a much-
needed dose of energy with
the Dallas Brass on
Wednesday, March 29, at 7
p.m.
The quintet masters all
aspects of the brass reper-
toire: classical, Dixieland,
swing, show tunes and more
as they provide a musical
travelogue through American
instrumental history.
On Wednesday, April 26,
at 7 p.m., SEA presents
“Barrage 8,” a high-energy
dose of modern string instru-
ments and movement.
Their innovative stage
performance blends wonder-
fully with their musical tal-
ent — and strings like you
have never heard them
before.
On Wednesday, May 24, at
7 p.m., it will be an incom-
parable night for
keyboard fans: dueling
pianos when “The Piano
Caméléons” will ring out
the SEA season on two
grand pianos, expertly
manned by a pair of virtuoso
pianists.
They revisit great classic
pieces with interpretations
touched by traditional jazz,
world beat and other influ-
ences.
It will be a spectacle for
the eyes, ears and soul.
Tickets can be purchased
at the Florence Events
Center box office, 715
Quince St., or by phone at
541-997-1994 during regular
business hours.
