Not a hater, but he needs stop doing it. I know it's allowed but it looks a bit like cheating. I think there should be a limit on how many times you can do it in 4 years.

I actually want to see Ashley Wagner do Firebird, though!

Ashley would rock Firebird!There are all those Russian movie themes that Russian skaters have used. "The Admiral" that Samarin used, for example, is quite nice.
I just hope nobody used 17,000 minutes in Spring, the miserable piece that Maria Butyrskaia used. Man, I can't stand that music.
And I hope no one uses Otonal or Meadowlands.
Elena would rock as a Bond Girl!

Yuzuru song of Two Step from Hell!
: nero, Heart of Courage, Strength Of A Thousand Men and especially archangel, so epic!!!

Tchaikovsky, Rachmaninov and Prokofiev for sure. Stravinsky's Firebird - probably, but his other works as well as Shostakovich's and Kchachaturian's pieces are not so melodious and rather difficult to interpret. Big audiences (olympics one including) prefer music they know so I doubt skaters will go with not so popular, 20th century classical music. I hope I'm wrong though, I'm tired of listening to the same pieces over and over again (only few exceptions).

A lady will skate to Carmen. I think it's a rule that someone must use it in the Olympic year.....

In his interview with Pigeon Post, Nobunari Oda revealed two of his new programs for next season, saying there's no reason to hide them. His free program is to the William Tell Overture and his exhibition is to The Last Samurai, both choreographed by Lori Nichol. For his EX, he says the steps at the end are really difficult.

I don't get this influx of Russian classical music just because it is in Sochi. It is far too obvious for my taste and shows lack of creativity or risk taking.
Does it mean just because the Olympic is in US, skaters should adopt country/jazz/blues music or Gershwin or John Williams? Olympic in Japan, lets all do memoir of a geisha or Hisashi? etc etc.
As far as I am concerned, an automatic +1 should be awarded in every PCS category just for any use of
- None Russian music
- No warhorse/'worldly acclaimed legit' classical music.
- No where near Carmen. (In fact this should result in - 1 deduction unless your surname ends with Virtue or Moir)
- Any program that has nothing to do with Morozov (to be fair, he will get home bonus anyway, so this way of marking just balance it all out to 0)
- Special award for using composers from outside Europe.

She was the junior Nationals silver medalist last year... I like the idea of keeping her Ave Maria FS! I also think that William Tell is very good for Nobu! :yes:

What do you mean? I didn't think he'd ever skated to that music before.
This is very good!:agree:

Something new, please... or at least something that hasn't been seen in a while.
Bond girl, Ave Maria, Firebird, Rach II, Swan Lake, Gershwin's "American Airlines Suite"... please, please, NO.
And I'd take Guns 'n Roses before I'd watch another Carmen program.
Has anyone of note skated to Bach since K/P? Or to Mendelssohn since Lu Chin? I can't recall.

Liza should skate to Czardas, it's Russian folk music but peppy and fast-paced, it would be a nice change of pace for her! Some happy skating!
I want Jason Brown to skate to Riverdance, THAT would be interesting I think.
Pogorilaya should have a tango program, loved her EX at JW and the costume, she is so expressive and fiery!
Adelina...I don't know, just not Burlesque or Aguilara, please.

Julia I am expecting her to skate a Tchaikovsky or Khachaturian musics
also Malanguena I think would do well for her
Gracie needs an modern/upbeat SP and classical LP
Liza will probably keep in Tango musics she looks bored and lobed when skating to classical musics
I like Yuna's current LP

I half expect Mao to choose Rach music, most likely Piano Concerto No. 2.
I never expected myself to ever say this, but I would love to see Mao skate to Madame Butterfly. I don't like the story at all, but the music is undeniably glorious and I think Mao now would be able to rise above the potential triteness of the selection and make it memorable.
