      Martha Graham and Her Music

      Martha Graham's choreography was born out of a close relationship to fresh-off-the-page music: she commissioned ballets from American composers Samuel Barber, Aaron Copland, and Louis Horst — whose music would be all but forgotten if it were not for archival films of her early dances. Graham changed the way we think about dance, as much as Igor Stravinsky did with music and Pablo Picasso with his paintings and sculpture.
