SEAcoast season 2017
High energy brass and eclectic musical fun
D ALLAS B RASS ( LEFT )
T
he SEAcoast season continues
Wednesday, March 29, when
Florence fans of brass will get a
dose of the Dallas Brass beginning at 7
p.m.
The quintet masters all aspects of the
brass repertoire: 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-ener-
gy dose of modern string instruments
and movement.
Their innovative stage performance
blends wonderfully with their musical
talent — and strings like you have
never heard them before.
On Wednesday, May 24, at 7 p.m., it
will be an incomparable night for key-
board 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 influences.
It will be a spectacle for the eyes, ears
and soul.
Tickets can be purchased at the
Florence Events Center box office, 715
