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.

Explanation:A lot of people will tell you the most important thing in a relationship is communication. Even though we have good intentions, communication is a challenge for most people. Whether you’re talking to a coworker, a friend, or a family member, it’s easy to misunderstand or be misunderstood.
Have you ever wondered how you can say what you mean in a way another person will understand? Or how you can really listen with the intent to understand? Or maybe you’ve wondered why everyone communicates so differently and how we can reach across these differences.
All of these questions, and more, are answered in Thich Nhat Hanh’s book, The Art of Communicating. Hanh is a Vietnamese Buddhist Zen master, peace activist, poet, and scholar. He seeks to teach others the art of mindful thinking to help in daily life.
In the book, he helps you understand what communication is good and what you should avoid. He teaches that in order to communicate well with others, you need to communicate with yourself.
These are the 3 most memorable lessons I got out of this book:
Everything you speak is either nourishing or toxic to others.
Learn how to communicate well with yourself if you want to get better at connecting with others.
Be consistently compassionate and honest to nurture others with loving speech.
Let’s dive right in and discover the connection between mindfulness and communication!
