Ballet No. 1 The Girl in White is a contemporary ballet in three acts written by American composer Robert J. Bradshaw. The story is based on Mexican folklore and the music is influenced by Mexican folk music or Mexican Son music. The ballet was commissioned and first recorded by James Ackley and the Palmetto Camerata with funding by a University of South Carolina Provosts’ Research Grant and additional support from two Crowdfunding campaigns through Kickstarter and GoFundMe.
