Violinist Jennina Norpoth and cellist Amanda Gookin are no strangers to this List.  This afternoon they each play a solo set of works by contemporary composers who are Black or female — or both.  They include such usual List suspects as Jessie Montgomery and Angélica Negrón.  So really, watch this.

MAKE A NIGHT OF IT:  What's better than an equal parts cocktail?  An equal parts cocktail where one of the parts is Champagne (yeah, it's just a Negroni with Champagne added — you got a problem with that?)!  Familia Reale:  pour 1 oz. each of Gin, sweet Vermouth, Campari, and Champagne into a glass or tumbler.  Add ice.  Stir.  Garnish with a grapefruit twist.
