Cleopatra (French: Cléopâtre ) is a dramatic ballet in one act, with choreography and libretto by Michel Fokine, and music by Anton Arensky, Alexander Taneyev, Nikolai Rimsky-Korsakov, Mikhail Glinka, Alexander Glazunov, Modeste Mussorgsky, Nikolai Tcherepnin.
Dance Panels is a ballet composed by Aaron Copland in 1959 for a planned collaboration with choreographer Jerome Robbins.
 After Copland had written the score, Robbins reneged on his commitment and the performance did not take place.
 Three years later, Copland revised the score for a ballet by the Bavarian State Opera in Munich, Germany, where it premiered on 3 December 1963.
 The ballet was performed by the New York City Ballet in 1965 and the concert version received its first performance at the Ojai Music Festival the following year.
 According to Copland biographer Howard Pollack, "Dance Panels" has proven from a musical standpoint one of the composer's more accessible late scores.
 While some of its more dissonant moments sound similar to Copland's 12-tone compositions, other parts recall his earlier stage and screen music.
 It is also the only one of Copland's six ballets not written to a specific program.
Cesare Pugni (Russian: Цезарь Пуни ) (] ; 31 May 1802–26 January [O.S. 14 January] 1870 ) born in Genoa, was an Italian composer of ballet music, a pianist and a violinist.
 In his early career he composed operas, symphonies, and various other forms of orchestral music.
 Pugni is most noted for the ballets he composed for Her Majesty's Theatre in London (1843–1850), and for the Imperial Theatres in St. Petersburg, Russia (1850–1870).
 The majority of his ballet music was composed for the works of the ballet master Jules Perrot, who mounted nearly every one of his ballets to scores by Pugni.
 In 1850 Perrot departed London for Russia, having accepted the position of "Premier maître de ballet" of the St. Petersburg Imperial Theatres at the behest of Carlotta Grisi, who was engaged as "Prima ballerina".
 Cesare Pugni followed Perrot and Grisi to Russia, and remained in the imperial capital even after Grisi's departure in 1853 and Perrot's departure in 1858.
 Pugni went on the compose for Perrot's successors Arthur Saint-Léon and Marius Petipa, serving as the Imperial Theatre's official composer of ballet music until his death in 1870.
Anton Stepanovich Arensky (Russian: Анто́н Степа́нович Аре́нский ; 12 July [O.S. 30 June] 1861 – 25 February [O.S. 12 February] 1906 ), was a Russian composer of Romantic classical music, a pianist and a professor of music.

 The European premier was on 13 October 1937 at the Dresden Staatsoper.
 The New York City Ballet premiere took place on 15 February 1951 under the title "The Card Game" at City Center of Music and Drama, New York.
Arif Malikov (also Melikov; September 13, 1933 in Baku) is an Azerbaijani and Soviet composer.
 He graduated from the Baku Conservatory as a music composer in 1958.
 He shot to fame in 1961 when his first major composition "Legend of Love" was staged at the Kirov State Academic Theatre of Opera and Ballet in Leningrad (present day St Petersburg) and received nationwide acclaim.
 The ballet has been staged in several countries in Europe and is regarded as one of the finest works emerging from the former Soviet Union.
 The ballet "Legend of Love", is based upon the legend of "Farhad and Shirin", a story of unrequited love that was immortalized by Turkish poet Nazim Hikmet.
 Since then, Malikov has written music for two more ballets including "Yer üzündə iki nəfər (balet)" ("Dvoe" or "Two") (1967) and "Poem of Two Hearts" (1981), five symphonies & eight symphony poems.
 He has also written scores for a large number of films and plays and is familiar with practically all genres of music composition.

Erik William Chisholm (4 January 1904 – 8 June 1965) was a Scottish composer, pianist, organist and conductor sometimes known as "Scotland's forgotten composer".
 According to his biographer, Chisholm "was the first composer to absorb Celtic idioms into his music in form as well as content, his achievement paralleling that of Bartók in its depth of understanding and its daring", which led some to give him the nickname "MacBartók".
 As composer, performer and impresario, he played an important role in the musical life of Glasgow between the two World Wars and was a founder of the Celtic Ballet and, together with Margaret Morris, created the first full-length Scottish ballet, "The Forsaken Mermaid".
 After World War 2 he was Professor and Head of the South African College of Music at the University of Cape Town for 19 years until his death.
 Chisholm founded the South African College of Music opera company in Cape Town and was a vital force in bringing new operas to Scotland, England and South Africa.
 By the time of his death in 1965, he had composed over a hundred works.
