Pick the music for your favorites

I would love for someone to skate to Clara Schumann's Trio for Piano, Violin and Cello: Someone who understands classical music and can bring out the beautiful nuances, maybe Denis Ten? I could also picture Patrick Chan skating to it, if he returns. I LOVE this piece. :love:


ETA: I also love Valse Romantique(first minutes of this track), I wish a dance team could make a short dance out of this, but it may be too difficult, too different.

For some reason I can totally see Gilles/Poirier doing a crazy weird free dance to the music from Twin Peaks. Imagine Poirier dressed up like Dale Cooper and Gilles as Laura Palmer. :love:

What about to "Come on Eileen?!" When I heard that song, I pictured them skating to it.
 
I would like to see Misha Ge skating on singing in the rain (with the lyrics). It could be amazing.
If V/M ever come back, I would love to see them skate on La Valse Macabre. I would like them to make something dark with it.
I would like to see Chan skate on Sibelius violin concerto.
I/Z should skate on a Piazolla tango medley

This could actually work... and would be perfectly timed for the Twin Peaks reboot in 2016! :love:
 
I saw the Rodgers & Hammerstein Cinderella on tour not long ago, and I thought the main waltz combined with "Ten Minutes Ago" might make a lovely waltz for a dance team, I'm thinking maybe H/B? Very bright, sweeping waltz, and I don't think overused- not to mention a gorgeous bit of music on its own!
 
I do not know who it would be best for, but I love Primavera by Ludovico Einaudi. Hannah Miller skated to it in 2013-14 and that was one of my favorite programs ever. I believe Kailani Craine skates to it as well. I'm thinking it might work for Zijun Li or Mariah Bell, but I'm not positive...
Also, I once wrote a story in which a (fictional) dance team did a free dance to Tarantella-could that work? A Hairspray ex/show program would be a lot of fun, too.

Ralph & Hill CAN used it, but I don't off hand remember any other dance team skating to it.
 
OMG I have so many ideas !!! It's always so frustrating when 90% of the skaters use and reuse the same 10-15 pieces of music :slink:

I want Yuzu to skate to the Doors again!!!!!! Or the Velvet, or the Stooges something likes that. Seriously, his Hello, I love you exhibition is one of the best programs I have seen imo. And i want him to do his LP on Totentanz. That would be epic :party2:
But tbh I hate POTO music and I adored his program nonetheless so... it doesn't really matter! Both his programs this season were masterpieces :points:

I want Gabriella and Guillaume to skate to electro music. Something like Jaimie XX, Chet Faker or Worakls. That's also the kind of music they actually listen to! So PLEASE :)
I'd also like to see them skate on this and this

And i want either Yuzu or Gab/Guillaume to skate on Air's "playground love" one day. Only them could do it justice i think. (Or Daisuke but it wasn't to be :( )

Sui/Han with their new maturity should skate to "in the mood for love" soundtrack and woo us

Liza or Lena should skate to Katyusha! and Anna to Bach-Busoni

Tatiana and Maxim should skate to Yann Tiersen "sur le fil"

Also I want Elena and Ruslan to skate to Bailando by Enrique Iglesias lol

OT - Actually this isn't happening. David Lynch pulled out due to budget issues.

I like daphenaxa's suggestions, very creative!
 
Someone needs to skate to Scars of Time by Yasunori Mitsuda from Chrono Cross.

If someone wants to do a Latin/Spanish program while not venturing into Carmen, a routine to Vamo Alla Flamenco from Final Fantasy IX would be an interesting choice of music. :laugh: Given the right choreography and skater, I think it'd be fun. ;)

The Piano Guys did a very nice version of Swedish House Mafia's Don't You Worry Child with an Indian twist; I think Liza could do a nice program to this. :)

Someone mentioned Loreena McKennitt earlier and I 100% back them on that. Some options:
Santiago
All Souls Night
Caravanserai
Marco Polo
And many more; she has loads of music...

Where did you hear that?

An article from 6 hours ago still says Showtime is moving forward as planned: http://www.theatlantic.com/entertai...without-david-lynch-wouldnt-be-so-bad/389829/

And a recent tweet from David Lynch:

Dear Twitter Friends, Showtime did not pull the plug on Twin Peaks.

Showtime didn't but David Lynch did. Hopefully there will be enough backlash to bring him back!
 
I also really love the soundtrack to Sympathy For Lady Vengeance. It's very baroque and dramatic. I could see Anna Pogo or Patrick Chan skating to it.
