Anna Pogorilaya

Despite the fall, her SP looks very much improved IMO. She changed back to the old music that was used during last year exhibition.

It was kind of scary there for a second after her fall as it seemed like she was unsure how to get back into the program.

IMO she should give up that music version and choose the one without vocals. The difference would be huge, for better.
 
It's too late to change now... they will basically have a week to prepare for national... and IMO this version works well...

Well no it's not too late. It's basically the same music. But in anycase I was speaking more about Euros and Worlds now. Didn't thought about nationals.
This version is horrible, adagio always was with vocals, but the thing is that vocals overpower her.

I wonder who made the choice for Anna. :hopelessness:
 
I think she did, no?

I think she said in her recent interview that her mom choose this music. Am I wrong here?

Edit: Well here is her response and reasoning why she choose her programs.

: What was behind your choice of programs this season?
A: The free program was suggested by my coach and my mom. As for the short... Last year, we took Adagio by Albinoni for the gala, and I was told that it really suits me and that it would be great to take it for a short program.

I like the current version of her SP music much better than the old one. I hope she keeps this (or finds an instrumental version).

That's the magic word.

There are acoustic guitar versions as well.

Myself I love the cello versions:

Cello quartet: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IWGPNG-Hgdc

There are plenty. Albinoni has been re-done to death.
 
Sorry, but her music works fine and changing it once again would just be a gigantic distraction... and no, it's not just the "same thing" between versions... going with an instrumental is different enough from than the vocalized version that she would have to interpret it differently and change her choreography.
 
Interpret it differently yes, which is for better.
Programs can always be improved, and it's not like changing from Albinoni to Mozart.
Anyway, we can agree to disagree about the music.

Actually she's better than last season. Not on podium but not last. Congrats! I wish the best for her at Nationals.
