For some reason, Mozart (the world's second greatest composer after Haydn ) is hardly ever used for figure skating. And Haydn never is. (Fumie did Eine Kleine Nachtmusik a couple of years ago -- right after she did Bach's Toccata and Fugue, steadily working her way through Lori's Nichol's list of the twenty most famous classical tunes, LOL.)
Instead, skating coaches and choreographers go for the romantic era -- Tchaikovsky and those guys. Loud, majestic themes, swelling crescendos, that sort of thing. Easy to "interpret."
I wish someone would try the Haydn quartets opus 76. But I think that would prove an impossible choreographic challenge.
Something can be great listening music but awful figure skating music.
We were talking about the music. And i don't think that Haydn is greater! However who said that it is awful skating music? Are you speaking only for yourself, or you're representing the world opinion?:chorus: :chorus: And if a music is a masterpiece it will be like this no matter where it is used. Watching the GP's so far, looks that i am right:chorus:
