The Bridgehampton Chamber Music Festival's Wm. Brian Little Concert, set for tomorrow at 6 p.m. at the Channing Daughters Winery in Bridgehampton, will bring the guitarist Stephane Wrembel and his band there for "Bach & Django."

Django Reinhardt, the legendary Belgian jazz guitarist, said that Bach's music "speaks to my heart and brings tears to my eyes." Mr. Wrembel's program will explore the connection between Bach's music and Reinhardt, including Reinhardt's interpretation of Bach's double violin concerto.

The benefit begins with hors d'oeuvres and wine in an outdoor setting, with the concert taking place at 7 under a tent. Tickets are $175.

Say Cheese (or Caviar), Day or Night

Self Provisions, a storefront attached to Cavaniola’s Gourmet Cheese in Sag Harbor, is “always open,” as is proclaimed by an illuminated sign on the wall at the entrance. Two large, brightly lit vending machines dominate the space, with offerings ranging from sea salt crackers and slabs of French butter to jars of caviar and curated gift boxes — and, of course, cheese.
