In this ballet, one statement of a unison string theme beginning with a descending and ascending octave is followed by four dancers clapping nine eighth notes. Mnemonics were used by Peter Sparling to learn the steps of a hat-wearing character in this ballet who directs four characters to successively sit on a church bench cued by flutes. Merce Cunningham first performed that role in this ballet, which used a simple set that included a rocking chair and the outline of a house. This ballet, which revolves around the marriage of the Husbandman and the Bride, includes variations on the Shaker hymn “Simple Gifts.” For 10 points, name this ballet choreographed by Martha Graham with music by Aaron Copland. ■END■
