[dorispulaski]

Madison Hubbell & Zach Donohue USA
SD Titanic soundtrack by James Horner
FD Farrucas by Pepe Romero, Un Amor by the Gipsy Kings

 

[colleen o'neill]

Un Amor ? Gypsy Kings? Wow .. I think this is excellent for these two . I hope it's more Gypsy kings and less Farrucas , actually.

 

[blancanieves]

Un Amor ? Gypsy Kings? Wow .. I think this is excellent for these two . I hope it's more Gypsy kings and less Farrucas , actually.

V&M used Farrucas beautifully on their 2010 OD. My guess is that they'll only pick up a section of it, maybe for footwork?, and use more of Un amor which has a more 'uplifting' feel overall. I'm really excited to see this!

SP Violin Concerto
LP Bat

I wonder whether "Bat" is actually Die Fledermaus perhaps???

I think this is Die Fledermaus. Their programs are choreographed by Marina Zueva. I remember seeing that on the Chinese forum.

 

[dorispulaski]

Marina is reusing music far too much!

Welcome to Golden Skate ice cool! Post long & often,

Pernelle Carron & Lloyd Jones FRA
SD Cotton Eyed Joe; Tenessee Waltz
FD La Chanson des Vieux Amants by Jaques Brel

[Macassar88]

Which violin concerto are Yu and Jin using?

 

[dorispulaski]

They don't say in their bio. We'll have to wait to see the program.

After all, for LP they just say "Bat" not even "The Bat"

Very terse style there.

 

[Tonichelle]

Is there enough polka music in the Titanic Soundtrack for it to work as an SD? :scratch:

 

[Blades of Passion]

Take out the last 30 seconds of the second piece and the interlude between the two pieces and it works perfect.

 

[Mathman]

Hi!

According to an IN article Weaver & Poje's new FD is too LXD, The Legion of Extraordinary Dancers. I think this is going to be very interesting!

Hi!

According to an IN article Weaver & Poje's new FD is too LXD, The Legion of Extraordinary Dancers. I think this is going to be very interesting!

I just read the article on IN and was about to post - you beat me to it! This sounds very, very interesting to me and challenging. I so enjoyed their programs last year, especially the FD and really am excited to see what they do this year. Wishing them the very, very best this season!
