 | Flagler Museum: Stradivari Quartet, 561-655-2833, www.flaglermuseum.us
7:30 p.m. Four Stradivaris, perfect musical instruments, find four musicians who bring out of them all the height and depth of human emotion that music can express. What unites them is their love of music; what drives them is their enthusiasm for using their musical talent to tell stories; technical perfection is a basic precondition which can be allowed to slip into the background. They breathe life into the completed work: the work of Stradivari and the works of the composers. This love is something that reaches to the heart that can be felt by anyone who is able and willing to listen. Tuesday. | |

Over the course of nearly 30 albums, Earl Klugh has not only stuck to his guns in the face of shifting musical trends, but has also become in the modern smooth jazz genre one of the most imitated acoustic guitar icons. | |
