Ivanova's SP at 1985 Worlds also has Czardas in it...I think her version's music may be even more frantic than Mao's.

Wow! That's really strong. And I think that the music editing was very smart. The music was slow for the most part. When the music gets really fast, she did straight line steps and finished with spins right after that, which gave a very strong impression. Amazing that she does not fall in such busy footsteps with that speed....!
The thing that I felt didn't work for Mao about Czardas is that every move she does is so soft, so smooth. As you put it, Czardas is frantic music. Even the violinist uses aggressive, short, accentuated spiccato strokes when playing the piece, and Mao doesn't quite have that kind of sharpness to her skating.
Hopefully her new programs will suit her better.
I totally agree:agree:
