On July 4, Pops Orchestra will perform ten works by nine U.S. composers By following the leads given by the next few statements we have to determine what will be the sequence of all the performances

Beachs Quintet will be heard immediately after Della Joios Fantasies Ives Fourth of July will be heard later than Della Joio. It will be followed immediately by Fosters Summer Longings

The third selection following Coplands Lincoln Potrait will be Ellingtons New World A-Coming; the next will be an Aria from Hansons Merry Mount
Gottschalks Grand Tarantelle will be heard earlier than the Della Joio

Antes Trio is the second work following the Hanson, and does not end the program

Step 1

The first statement specifies a combination of two consecutive performances, no matter where they are placed, which are Della Joios Fantasies followed by Beachs Quintet The second statement again gives us a combination of two consecutive performances, Ives Fourth of July and Fosters Summer Longings, and these two occur after Della Joios Fantasies is played The third point yet again gives us a set of consecutive performances, Ellingtons New World A-Coming followed by Aria from Hansons Merry Mount. This point also specifies that these two will occur three songs after Coplands Lincoln Potrait

Step 2

Step 3

Step 4

The fourth statement points out the occurrence of the performance Gottschalks Grand Tarantelle before Della Joio The last statement is indicative of two things, one that the Antes Trio will be performed two songs after Hanson but at the same time Antes Trio will not finish the program

Step 5

Overlapping the two distinctly obtain lists we obtain the solution

1. The sequence best suited is (B)Copland, Della Joio, Beach, Ellington, Hanson, Foster 2. The Della Joios Fantasies is (D)followed by two other works before the Hansons aria is heard 3. The fourth work after the intermission (occuring after Beach Quintet) is (A)Antes

4. Between the Beach & the Foster we hear (E)5 works

5. The performer of the Antes, the Gottschalk, & the Ellington will begin tuning up (E)before the start of the program

6. The composer represented by two works and separated by four other selections is (C)Copland
