• ... that Max Richter's remix of Dinah Washington's song "This Bitter Earth" was used in the dance Five Movements, Three Repeats? Source: "One of them, a pas de deux for Wendy Whelan and Tyler Angle, is Mr. Richter’s remix of Dinah Washington’s "This Bitter Earth."" ([1])
  • ALT1:... that the dance Five Movements, Three Repeats features a modern dancer and three ballet dancers? Source: "Striking here, and slightly evocative of Merce Cunningham, is the spatial independence of the work’s four dancers — Wendy Whelan, Tyler Angle and Craig Hall (all from New York City Ballet), with the Taiwanese modern-dance virtuoso Fang-Yi Sheu" ([2])
  • ALT2:... that a pas de deux from the dance Five Movements, Three Repeats was once performed with costumes from the fashion house Valentino? Source: "Although the pas de deux “This Bitter Earth,” to Max Richter’s remix of Dinah Washington’s famous recording of the 1960 Clyde Otis song, demonstrated the fondness of its choreographer, Mr. Wheeldon, for extensive over-partnering, it also abounds in the felicities of phrasing and image that give his work distinction. Wendy Whelan and Tyler Angle, in subdued Valentino, danced with eloquence." ([3])

• Comment: For ALT0, the review called it a "remix", the song's article and New York City Ballet's website called it a "mashup", but either way it's arranged by Max Richter

• Everything looks good in the article with length, date, neutrality, referencing, copyvio, etc. all checking out. QPQ is done. The hooks are hooky: all properly formatted and supported by refs. I like the first hook because it gets Dinah out there. Too bad we don't have a public domain photo of beautiful dancers. Binksternet (talk) 01:27, 10 August 2020 (UTC)
