Nashville has another way to spend an evening with a string ensemble. Candlelight Concerts is a series of live performances by string players, and the only light in the room comes from candles. In a city that takes musicianship seriously, an evening built around one quartet-sized sound and a soft glow is worth a look. It's a quieter night out than Lower Broadway, and in the candlelight the players' craft is what you notice.
