The imaginative and empathetic composer Lisa Bielawa — certainly one of those who have their own sound world that you can recognize immediately — has a coronavirus project in which she's soliciting short testimonies from the public reflecting on coronavirus experiences, writing melodies for them, giving them to singers to record, and then composing backing tracks for them.  She'll post a new "chapter" each Thursday at 3 PM (and leave them up), toward the eventual end of their all forming a big piece — which the participants can get together to perform live on The Other Side!

MAKE A NIGHT OF IT:  A Diplomat:  pour 1-1/2 oz. each dry and sweet Vermouth, with 1 dash each of Maraschino liqueur and Angostura bitters, into an ice-filled cocktail shaker.  Stir.  Strain into an ice-filled Martini glass or coupe.  Garnish with a lemon twist or cocktail cherry.
