It's Monday again, and with it comes yet another long workweek. But there's plenty of green beer at the end of the tunnel: St. Patrick's Day is Saturday.

The South Florida Symphony’s 20th-anniversary program foregrounds a different vision of the artistic process: the kind of innovation that occurs when artists surrender their single vision in their encounters with other artists and the greater community.
