2014-2015 Programs by Discipline

[blue eyed birds]

The Shibs actually announced their selections in August on their Facebook page, where they also went into detail about the thoughts behind each program.

I notice these hadn't been posted yet, but several other ISU bios were updated a few weeks ago:

Penny Coomes/Nicholas Buckland

SD: Flamenco: Malagdena & Poeta; Paso Doble: Poeta en el Mar
FD: Exogenesis Part 1 by Muse; Hurricanes and Butterflies by Muse

Piper Gilles/Paul Poirier

SD: El Gato Montes; Capriccio Espagnol by Nikolai Rimski-Korsakov
FD: A Street Car Named Desire; Overture from "Gentlemen Prefer Blondes"; Si tu voi ma mere by Sidney Bechet; Dans les rues d'Antibes by Sidney Bechet

Alexandra Paul/Mitchell Islam

SD: Nocturno by Guido Luciani; Farruca y Rumba by Pepe Romero (this was already known)
FD: Come Rain or Come Shine by Frank Sinatra; The Way You Look Tonight by Frank Sinatra

The Shibutani's have finally announced their SD selections!
SD Flamenco: Asturias Variations, Paso Doble: The Last Corrida; choreo by Massimo Scali, Marina Zueva, and Corky Ballas
FD Rosen aus dem Süden (Roses from the South) by Johann Strauss, The Blue Danube by Johann Strauss; choreo by Massimo Scali, Marina Zueva, and Corky Ballas

The Shibs actually announced their selections in August on their Facebook page, where they also went into detail about the thoughts behind each program. ...

What are new :yes: in the post from Doris (as she noted at the beginning of her post) are the specific music selections for the Shibutanis' SD -- which were not in their FB post from August and were not previously known. (My emphases added above.)

The start of a new quad and they want to be Kerrs 3.0 already. :disapp: Same choreographer and coach too. This is not a good idea.

Julie Marcotte choreographed Castelli and Tran's free skate, but other than it being a tango, neither skater could identify the music.

Re the quote about Castelli/Tran's FS music from IN's article about An Evening with Champions:

I see that Doris already has added the title of their tango to her master list, but LOL, seems that Mervin still would be in the dark to this day if not for a blogger's tweet :

If you want to be technical about it. C/B and the Kerrs have different styles. Penny and Nicholas aren't trying to be "Kerrs 3.0" as you stated. That's ridiculous. Also, yes, they are using Muse but it's totally different cuts, and C/B are using Exogenesis Pt 1, not Part 3 as the Kerrs did. Relax.

Well that's quite the change from their last year's super modern FD, but I have to say that I like what I see. Of course it needs some more work, more refinement, but I do like it. Especially that last lift, the way they bend down *o*

Papadakis & Cizeron SD from French Masters
SD Farrucas Sin Zapateado y Sin Cante, Farrucas Baile Completo by El Trini

For me this is the best SD i have seen so far for the season...not perfect...i saw a few errors here and there which you might expect with a first outing...but i can see this really developing during the season...love the use of the skirt...he even flung it too at 1:45...also the vocals sound very similar to that in A/P 2002 flamenco OD...does anyone know if it is the same singer?

Have you seen that recent picture of him lately, where he's sporting some interesting facial hair? It's like over the summer he goes out to the mountains and trains with monks to come back the next season having mastered air-bending. Has there been any talk of his layout ?
