This rising quartet plays a kaleidoscopic assemblage of short new pieces supposedly reflecting the effects of The Pandemic on their composers — including Eliza Bagg, a perennial List fave for her usual work as a vocalist.

MAKE A NIGHT OF IT:    This just feels like a night for Audrey Saunders's wonderful Intro to Aperol (a drink that has outlived its historical moment — the time of the introduction of Aperol to the U.S. market — but not its wonderfulness):  pour 1 oz. Gin, 2 oz. Aperol, and 3/4 oz. lemon juice into an ice-filled cocktail shaker.  Shake.  Strain into a chilled Martini glass or coupe.  Garnish with an orange twist (if there's one thing we all have a plethora of during Quarantine, it's citrus rinds to use as cocktail garnishes).
