A new opera about queer love and the first American woman in space.
Sally Ride follows the real-life story of the first American woman and the first LGBTQ+ person to go to space. Narrated by her life partner, Tam O'Shaughnessy, who consulted on the creation of this work, the opera illuminates parts of Ride's life that remained hidden until her death while celebrating her immense contributions to the field of physics, to the US space program, and to science education.
This world-premier explores the thrills, disappointments, humor, and secrets of Ride's life, taking the audience on a journey of personal exploration and triumph.
Written by composer Dana Kaufman and librettist Aiden K. Feltkamp. Directed by Eliza K. Woodyard.

The Central Washington University band program warmly invites the campus and greater Ellensburg community to an evening of engaging and expressive wind band music on Tuesday, June 2, 2026 at 7:00pm in Hertz Concert Hall. This special performance will feature both the CWU Concert Band and Symphonic Band and is free and open to the public.
The concert will open with the CWU Concert Band under the direction of Kyle Edwards. This portion of the program presents a vibrant and stylistically diverse collection of works that span centuries and continents. Audiences can expect music by composers including Adolphus Hailstork, Josef Franz Wagner, Alex Shapiro, Jay Gilbert, George Frideric Handel, and Adam Gorb. Together, these composers represent a wide range of musical traditions, from the elegance and clarity of the Baroque era to the bold and innovative sounds of contemporary wind band writing. Each piece contributes to a larger musical journey that highlights both contrast and continuity within the wind band repertoire. The ensemble will also feature second-year master’s conducting student Eric Mills, providing an opportunity to showcase emerging artistry within the program.
The second half of the evening will feature the CWU Symphonic Band under the direction of Dr. T. André Feagin, Director of Bands. This program is centered on both foundational works of the wind band tradition and compelling modern compositions. The ensemble will perform music by Peter Mennin, Philip Sparke, Jennifer Jolley, Percy Grainger, and James M. David. These selections offer a broad emotional and musical spectrum, ranging from energetic and rhythmically driven passages to moments of lyrical depth and introspection. The combination of classic and contemporary works creates a dynamic and engaging listening experience, highlighting the expressive power and versatility of the modern wind band.
This concert promises an evening of artistic excellence and meaningful musical connection for all who attend.
