Debussy can be very delicate music. Can Flatt handle it? It'll be interesting to watch.

Oy, another Swan Lake, another one of those boids flapping their wings Well, good luck to her. She'll need it.

Debussy?! La Mer?! You've got to be kidding me. I think the music, although wonderful, is much too mature and difficult to interpret for her at this point. I wonder how she'd do on it.

I think that she could do a good tango... good choice there i think. :agree:
Swan lake? OH PLEASE. I love swan lake and never get tired of hearing it....i have the whole suite on my iPod, but she is the about the worst skater out there toady to skate to this music. SO not her style. bad choice.
but really, other than that this year dosne't seem so bad for overused music. No Carmens, (i don't think) and I don't remember hearing about any Toscas (thank god!).
I'm sick of tango before the season ever starts!
Kostner has those outrageously long arms to flap. Yikes!
OTOH, I think Rachael Flatt can handle Debussy. She was able to capture the nuance of every note of the FS she did last season.

YUNA's Music
Yayyy those two are great chocices!! i wanted her to skate to scheherazade!!(good thing she didn't pick Zigeunerweisen or whatever. It wasn't a good skate music). I've never heard Danse Macabre before, but i think it'll be awesome! i guess there would be the charisma of yuna's tango for roxanne. I think the music choices are wayy better than last year's! (though last year's programs were fantastic too) I wonder how Wilson will choreograph to this music...

I believe Oda is doing Tosca.

And just think of the hideous costume choice she can come up with for Swan Lake. :think:

She apparently could skate naked... The judges LOVE LOVE LOVE her. I hope she has had alot of ballet, because that is essential for Swan lake. i prefer girls with ballet bodies for this . She is a beautiful girl, but doesnt really have the legs or feet IMHO.

now i feel ill. She usually looks like some kind of tropical bird that fell in the paint... especially that hideous Memoirs of a Geisha dress. not sure if it is possible for her to wear a classic, white, ballet inspired outfit.
right. caroline could do a beautiful swan lake. look at sasha. he interpretation of this music was arguably the best ever. she had ballet lines.
carolina should stick to jazz and maybe the tango.

I'm actually interested to see Kostner's Swan Lake. She has the long-limbed look of a Ballachine ballerina, and with the right choreography, I thing she could do a good job with it. At least she is trying something that is different for her, unlike Zhang, who is sticking with the same style she always uses.

The BEST Swan Lake I ever saw, and it rules 100 other skaters, was
ILIA KLIMKIN
He portrayed von Rothbart as the evil owl who makes a habit of capturing little princesses. He did it with beautiful skating, too.
Klimkin was, imo, a very special skater who really belonged in the Ballet world.
Kostner? Zhang? IMO, only the technical will tell the difference. The performance will be like all the others.
