And as for Romeo and Juliet, I think no words are needed, though I will light a candle that a Leo voiceover won't be part of it at least.

Listen, I'm all for people loving what they love and being lovely about it. I actually really like the score of Evita. It's just I'm sick of hearing Phantom.
Why doesn't anyone use one of the finest Broadway scores of the last few years: A Light in the Piazza. This is my favorite song from the show, Dividing Day:

I suspect it was exactly his good ear for what works that led Charlie into cutting D&W's music-so many programs have choppy cuts, it must have driven him nuts, to saying, I can do that so much better.
I liked what he did with Scheherazade, but his Giselle SD was genius IMO.
Here's my best guesses. They are all from Act I of Giselle:

Christopher Dean had cut Bolero down (he may have been working with a musician or someone) to where he felt it would just ruin the music to cut it any more. They were at an impasse, and he (plus a coach maybe?) finally came up with what they could do. They found a technicality; according to the rules, a FS didn't start until the skaters' blades moved on the ice, so he choreographed that segment where he and Jayne were both on their knees, face to face. That solved the problem in a way that didn't involve butchering the music. I really love it when the parties involve respect the music.
I didn't know Charlie White cut his own music. (the things you learn ....) But besides being a fan of his wild, passionate skating, I admire his commentary for IN. He spoke of Papadakis/Cizeron's FS as "a piece of art" and that you don't think about technique when you watch it, you just never want it to end. I love that.
And, I can't help but say, even though I was tired of POTO from 2014-15, I think it's so great that Tarah and Danny went with the Streisand/Crawford duet of Music of the Night this year. It was a breakthrough year for them, and it was a piece of music that meant something to them. I think there's often a correlation there.
I didn't know about it - look what you can learn here :shocked: :agree:
... Charlie's older brother, Jason "Jay" Gutholm, is a heavy metal guitarist:

Jason said he loved his SP, but it was hard on his back.
golden411,
I am sure you are correct about Jason Caine, since I am quite sure Bloodline Riot is the name of the band (I could not remember the band name before.)
Jason said he loved his SP, but it was hard on his back.
Why is Marin skating to Romeo and Juliet???? Hopefully it's the Ballet and not the (significantly more overused) score by Nino Rota. POTO, R and J, and Carmen should be banned. Also no one under any circumstance should use Nutcracker...it's torture for ballet dancers who have a love/hate relationships with that particular score after being forced to listen to it 24/7 from the beginning of September to the end of December every year. Anyway, holding out hope that Marin will bring her gorgeous lines and feel for the music into a heart-felt R and J program to set herself apart from the myriad of R and J programs we've seen the past several seasons.
Also, I don't mind Jason keeping his long, since it was beautiful and he never really performed it to its full potential with his injury and having to withdraw. My only concern now is that his short seems to be of a similar style to his long, and he won't have a program that he can show his performance ability as much. I'm just hoping for an injury free Jason next season, and with that long program, a quad (while necessary) is icing on the cake for me.
Agree. Like I feel like coaches should encourage their students to look through the music players to find songs they LIKE, even it's non-traditional skating music and tell the names to their coaches and see if they can agree together on songs.
