Octaviana
The correct answer is D. The Rake's Progress. It is not a ballet, but an opera. The libretto was written by the famous modernist poet W. H. Auden, and it had its premiere in 1951. To this day, it has been considered one of the ultimate masterpieces of the 20th-century opera, just like Stravinsky's ballets are landmarks in their genre.

Answer:

The answer is option D.

It's anything but an artful dance, yet a musical drama. The lyrics was composed by the well known innovator artist W. H. Auden, and it had its debut in 1951. Right up 'til today, it has been viewed as one of a definitive magnum opuses of the twentieth century musical show, much the same as Stravinsky's ballet performances are tourist spots in their kind.
