Title: Terrible!
Review: After watching this dance routine, I know why the music works better as a suite. The dance is nothing like I imagined. With period piece clothes and ballet like steps, lacking in appropriate scenery and a narrative, the dancing reflects nothing of American folk dance, especially in the doppio movement featuring the Shaker hymn Simple Gifts.Understanding something of American folklore as I do, I was hoping to see choreography more suited to the time and place reflected in the music. Instead I saw a poorly arranged ballet that seemed out of step with the music. This is most discouraging. I thought it was terrible to say the least.
