SUMMARY:Cassia Streb / Sandstone Quartet - Music for the Open Sky
DESCRIPTION:MUSIC\n \nCassia Streb / Sandstone Quartet\n \nMusic for the Open Sky\n \nSaturday\, April 4\, 2026\, 7:30PM\n \nPerformance to be followed by a reception with the artists.  \n \nLorraine Boccardo Theater\n \n\n“Across centuries\, composers have looked to the night sky as a place for reflection—an expanse that invites both wonder and humility. This program brings together music written more than five hundred years apart\, tracing different ways composers have contemplated the heavens.” \n\nCassia Streb\n\n \nFor centuries\, composers have looked to the night sky as a source of reflection and wonder. This program brings together music written more than 500 years apart\, tracing different ways artists have contemplated the cosmos. \n \nBeginning with Josquin des Prez’s haunting Renaissance lament—heard here in a new 2026 string quartet arrangement—the program moves through Beethoven’s luminous “Razumovsky” Quartet\, whose slow movement was inspired by his contemplation of the stars. Contemporary works by Leila Adu-Gilmore and Laurence Crane extend this tradition\, blending spectral harmony\, rhythmic complexity\, and fragments of Beethoven with imagery captured by NASA spacecraft and telescopes. \n \nTogether\, these works invite listeners to pause\, look upward\, and hear the vastness of the universe translated into sound. \n \n\nTICKETS\n\n\nPerformers\n\n 	Felix Hernandez-Jones\, violin\n 	Adrienne Andisheh\, violin\n 	Cassia Streb\, viola\n 	Kevin Mills\, cello\n\n\nAbout Sandstone Quartet: \n \n \nWorking collaboratively rather than hierarchically\, the quartet selects and develops repertoire that speaks to their individual and collective experiences. Their performances emphasize attentive listening\, trust\, and responsiveness — qualities that reflect both their musical values and the landscape they inhabit. The Sandstone Quartet’s work embodies a deep sense of place\, shaped by the quiet expanses and subtle shifts of the desert environment that connects them.

SUMMARY:VOYAGER LECTURE SERIES  Beyond Billionaires: Bringing Space Down to Earth with Theresa Hitchens
DESCRIPTION:VOYAGER LECTURE SERIES\n\n\n\nBeyond Billionaires: Bringing Space Down to Earth\n\n\n\nwith Theresa Hitchens\n\n\n\nTuesday\, April 21\, 7:30pm | Social Hour Begins at 6:30pm\n\n\n\nThe Lorraine Boccardo Theater\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nHow many times a day do you think you touch outer space? Probably more than you think. GPS navigation\, weather forecasts\, and even the value of your stock portfolio all rely on satellites orbiting Earth. So do essential government functions\, from national security and environmental monitoring to managing the electric grid and dam operations. In reality\, we already are space people—and as more nations work to build infrastructure beyond Earth\, from space stations to the Moon and beyond\, humanity may not be far from becoming true inhabitants of the heavens. \nSo who are the players shaping the rules for managing\, developing\, and protecting the space environment? Is space and its future being thoughtfully and collaboratively utilized or is it more akin to the “Wild West”? How do the world’s militaries factor in? What challenges come with humanity’s growing presence in space\, and what is being done to address them? \nPlease join us for an evening with journalist and space expert Theresa Hitchens to gain a deeper understanding of these issues—and to consider what role\, if any\, we as citizens can play in what remains a space of geopolitical competition and billionaire ambition. \nTICKETS\n\n\n\n\n\n— \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nTheresa Hitchens is a journalist and researcher based out of Washington\, DC\, with almost 40 years of expertise on US and international military defense programs and budgets\, space governance and regulatory issues\, and space-related technology. She is a former director of the United Nations Institute for Disarmament Research\, and the first American to hold that position. She currently writes about defense-related space activities for Breaking Defense. \n\n\n\n  \n  \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe Voyager Lecture Series is generously sponsored by Voyager Wealth Advisors\, Proven Law\, and Cache Valley Bank.

SUMMARY:Aristides Rivas and Meena Malik: Remembering
DESCRIPTION:MUSIC & STORYTELLING\nAristides Rivas and Meena Malik\nRemembering\nSaturday\, April 25\, 2026 | 7:30pm\nPerformance to be followed by a reception with the artists.  \nLorraine Boccardo Theater\nRemembering is more than a concert—it’s a powerful musical storytelling experience about identity\, memory\, and belonging. Acclaimed vocalist Meena Malik and masterful cellist Aristides Rivas weave together music and personal narrative to explore their journeys as immigrants\, artists\, and parents. \nInspired by a question from their son—“What is an immigrant?”—the program reflects on the traditions they carried from their home countries of Japan and Venezuela\, the challenges of navigating grief and change\, and the healing role music has played in their lives. \nThough deeply personal\, their stories resonate universally. Through song\, reflection\, and shared experience\, audiences are invited to consider their own connections to home\, heritage\, and the memories that shape who we are. \nTICKETS \n\n \nAristides Rivas and Meena Malik: Remembering is generously sponsored by Sunshine Family Haven.
