The Sarasota Concert Band hopes to fill the house for this weekend's concert by slashing prices. Tickets are now buy-one-get-one-free. The goal is to make the arts affordable to everyone during tough economic times, organizers said.
Sunday's 3 p.m. concert at Neel Performing Arts Center will feature world-renown composer Walter Hartley. Hartley - whose pieces have been performed in high school bands and world-class symphony orchestras throughout the nation - will premiere his new work "Duo Concertante." His appearance is part of the Sarasota Concert Band's 55th anniversary celebration.
Tickets are two for $10. For more information or to reserve tickets, call 364-2263 or visit Keyboards and More in Bradenton (746-1414). The concert will be held on the campus of Manatee Community College, 5840 26th St. W., Bradenton.
