This edition of Michael Colgrass' Sea Shadow includes all of his original musical and choreographical markings, allowing for a better understanding of the work as a whole. The ballet was originally intended to be choreographed to Ravel's Concerto in G minor, but when rights to the work were taken away just days before the performance, Colgrass offered to write a new score for the twelve-minute ballet overnight. The next day, Colgrass' Sea Shadow was performed by the Joffrey Ballet at New York City Center in April of 1966. By April 1989, the original Ravel score was made available again, and the ballet was revived with it.
