I believe ALL music can be interpreted, and I think the best way to get that done is to have a national-like Skating Company a la John Curry. But can it sell to the Northamerican audiences? What you have now is COI and SOI with nothing they do that is memorable after 2 years. Maybe SOI. Avoid Disney like shows except as fund raisers. A National Company could have a family Disney theme show for the weekend matinees. Money, money, money is the problem.seanibu said:This would make me think that something like "popular music," rock etc..., would be easier for a skater to interpret. Doesn't the classical styles of music require a more "refined palette" to appreciate and understand? JAT
For eligible skaters, medals are the goals and if Carmen, Malaguena and other tunes of middlebrow music as one poster aptly put it, are the root to medals, then so be it. I think this will remain. The youngsters do not have the emotions for mature music.
