Cleopatra! Didn’t expect that. I‘ll have to listen to the songs he listed. But definitely a very interesting choice for her.
Kitri, Christina, Carmen, Cleopatra. Loving This :thumbsup:

Daniil just announced Alina‘s program

Watch Daniil use the famous Tuktik arms and cause a new controversy
I’m surprised that she didn’t use music from Rome by Jeff Beal.
I like that sound!
Couldn't find on youtube Khatir Hicham - Ramses. The Peter Gabriel piece which I recognized from "The Passion of the Christ" soundtrack and Maurice Jarre - Lawrence d'Arabie are awesome. I always sensed an oriental vibe from Alina. I hope she will show us an amazing program next season
Here. Maybe for stsq? But that could be a challenge, it is very fast.

I think she can portray Cleopatra well on the ice, but previous programs on that theme didn't end up great.
Well, I‘m somewhat concerned about that too. The last Cleopatra program that comes to my mind now was by Laurine Lecavelier, I think, and... no comments on that.
Alina skated to Samson and Delilah as a junior so I am sure she will make a wonderful Cleopatra. She already knows how to feel this type of Orient inspired music
I am all for this program. Cannot wait to see it. Also now I am even more excited to know the SP

The music choices are interesting: it's funny that none of these pieces actually come from a Cleopatra movie which is not a first, i remember Miki Ando's Cleopatra music was actually from Asterix and Marco Polo
Not too bad, the movie is quite old, there would have been the risk of some weird sword fighting in the steps sequence like in Tuktamysheva's Cleopatra program.

Also fun fact, Eteri used "The feeling begins" for an old program she did for Tursynbaeva

With all respect to Laurine, Alina is on a whole different level. And I don't think just technically, but her technique allows her much wider range of moves and therefore richer choreography.
I know, this was just the first program that came to mind because it was the last I saw. It‘s just that Laurine‘s choreography (I‘m again sorry to drag her into this) was exactly what I don‘t want to see from a Cleopatra program. I also hope Daniil refrains from using too many music cuts and sound effects and doesn‘t rush the choreography.
Alina is definitely up to something faster, if this piece indeed becomes her step sequence, then she can show her speed there. But during the other songs I hope she will hold her moves and create a moment. She can pull this off and be intense enough and show everyone with her eyes, that, “Yes, I am Cleopatra.“ This was what sometimes lacked for me in Carmen. When the nerves crept in, she sort of lost the intensity and mood she had at the beginning of the program. I hope we will see it here because I know she‘s capable of it.
Do you mean this one?

I actually didn't mind it, but if it wasn't for that 5-10 seconds of Liz Taylor voice over, i would have never guessed this was a Cleopatra program.
It has some egyptian / middle east moves like the belly dance with a music actually more arabic than egyptian (it's from a brazilian telenovela "O Clone")
