John Wilson’s 2023 recording of this musical was the first complete recording of the original orchestration by Robert Russell Bennett. Miles Davis’s album Steamin’ opens with a cover of a song from this musical in which a character describes “the slickest gig you’ll ever see.” A character in this musical imagines “long tangled hair” which “falls across my face” in a song in which he vows to win a bride, “Lonely Room.” One of the female lead’s love interests sings “chicks and ducks and geese better scurry” before the imagined “surrey with the fringe on top.” Agnes de Mille choreographed this musical’s “dream ballet” in which Laurey “makes up her mind” about Jud and Curly. For 10 points, name this Rodgers and Hammerstein musical titled after a US state. ■END■
