2014-2015 Programs by Discipline

thank you, gallavich!

Soundhound is little help with Mae Berenice's SP. It identifies the first few seconds as being from Hosanna by the Soweto Chorus, and thinks some of the rest of it is from something called Asian Chill Mix. I would not swear to any of that-plus the audio on the vid is not good.

I guess I'll have to wait for her bio to be updated!

Sonia Lafuente’s new programs: SP “Caravan” arab-jazz version coreo. by David Wilson and LP “Vivaldi’s 4 seasons” coreo. by Jeffrey Buttle

I found the corresponding article at Hieloespanol:
http://www.hieloespanol.es/1/carava..._a_sonia_lafuente_esta_temporada_1744321.html

I hope someone who understands Spanish would double-check the article where they explained about the music choice. They linked her performances at Quebec at the bottom of the article. When I listened to her LP music, half of it was quite different from the original Four Seasons. Either it is a rearranged version or mixed with something else.

The article says it's Four Seasons rearranged with Romantic and tango-style variations.

Mae Berenice Meite SP

I love Mae, but what is that music cut???? and that costume!!!
Great improve in skills, not in spins, that ilusion entry for her layback don't help her

I'm a big fan, too; I especially enjoy her dynamic energy. :yay: Have to agree re: music/costume, though. The music edits don't make any sense and the costume isn't flattering. IMO it would be more flattering if it were all one color.

I counted 3, maybe 4 pieces of music -- overall, a very disjointed effect.

It reminds me of Adrian Schultheiss's crazy random programs that he used to do. I didn't like the first version, but I can appreciate it more now and he seems to be getting a lot more comfortable with it. On paper it makes no sense, but there's a method to the madness.

It's a Man's World as in James Brown and Eliadj Balde's short?? I have a soft spot for Eliadj, but I can't imagine Voronov doing better....

Yes, the James Brown song. Voronov finished second in the LP at Finlandia with this mashup of 4 songs.

Did Francesca Chiera get a bye to Eastern Sectionals?

If she won sectionals last year, yes she would.
