Neither Ballet Austin's website nor Suzanne Farrell Ballet's subwebsite credit Bach.  My program from their K-C performances is floating around here somewhere.

The program for SFB's Kennedy Center performances does note the Bach: "Music by J.S. Bach orchestrated by Anton Webern (Ricercata, Fugue in six voices from The Musical Offering)."

Well, I shouldn't have settled so easily for the NYCB improvement.  Farrell Ballet has done it exactly as it should be.  'Ricercata in Six Voices from Bach's Musical Offering by Anton von Webern' of NYCB is still very poor compared to Farrell Ballet program. Thanks, kfw.  May all ballet companies doing this work follow SFB's example.
