It is set to a series of Brahms string quintets. Its 12 dancers come and go in varying groups, at one point dancing meditatively in a loose line, side by side but moving alone.

Waterbaby Bagatelles, which premiered in 1994, is a glorious symphony of wiggles and swoops, set to a variety of recorded music and performed by a fleet of bobbling dancers in aqua-hued swimwear. Nine Sinatra Songs is a popular and entertaining modern dance classic, created by Tharp almost 30 years ago for her then-existing Twyla Tharp Dance Company. It
