Do different "styles" of music make it harder to compare skaters with the GOE marks?
And for that matter, if there is different music and it is likely matched to skating style, subjective? and will that impact judging?
Do coaches or whomever think that the same lyrical pieces need to be compared to be fair about it. How or can they judge the Four Seasons equally with Jimmy Hendrix Little Wing?
I thought of this because Emily had a great routine to "Proud Marry" and now went to "a lyrical and softer" piece. And wonder why? Did they feel a change was necessary to "match" the others and she was getting marked different due to the "different" music. One most definitely fit her style better IMO.
I realize it shouldn't be an issue, but wonder if a change music used is brought on by this type of idea. ???
