This hometown string quartet plays music relating to healing (take that as you will today), including knockout pieces by Caroline Shaw and Gabriela Lena Frank, and Beethoven's next-to-the-last (by date of publication) string quartet, which is stunning, amazing, supremely great music even if it's mainstream European-white-male common-practice classical.

MAKE A NIGHT OF IT:  Irish Coffee:  put 2 teaspoons of brown sugar at the bottom of a large mug.  Pour in 4 oz. strong coffee.  Stir until sugar is dissolved.  Pour in 1-1/2 oz. Irish whiskey.  Stir.  Top with 1 oz. of lightly whipped cream (you pour it in over a wooden spoon so it doesn't blend but rather creates a layer on top).
