An interview with Elena.

Her new short program is Flamenco, long program is Rachmaninoff.

The flamenco sounds really interesting.

Wonder if the Rach is Rach 2...

Exactly... Flamenco seems perfect for her (given how good her Frida interpretation was), while Rachmaninoff should be really interesting, she's never performed anything really classical! :think:

But I hope it will not be Rach 2 because it has been overused.

But I hope it will not be Rach 2 because it has been overused.

I also hope it is not Rachmaninov's 2nd (a bit tired of it) or rhapsody on a theme by paganini. Don't any of these skaters know other music by this composer at all? He had written so much-- all they have to do is go on YouTube and look up other works by him. In all this time the only other Rach music I remember skaters used were Elegy, bells of Moscow and Gorderva/Grinkov's vocalise. There should be more variety when skaters choose to skate to a famous composer's music.

That's part of what I love about her, besides her expressiveness and musicality, is that she seems ever so slightly offbeat and different from the average figure skater. I don't know how to explain it. I just love her to bits.

I haven't had a chance to watch this yet, but here is a video that apparently shows a clip of Elena's new free program:

It's Rach 3 according to a poster on the 'Russian babies' thread.

Can't wait to watch after dinner!

Hey breathesgelatin, I think you got the wrong link....that's Anna...

Hey breathesgelatin, I think you got the wrong link....that's Anna...

Yep. That's Anna and Albinoni's adagio music. I don't think there is video yet of Elena's new program.

Oh, darn, I think I posted the wrong link. Here is the correct one:

It's just snippets of her practicing a new program, doing her ballet routine, etc. Elena's section starts around 4:48 into the video. Really cool. Anyone who speaks Russian please translate!

Oh Yes, the Japanese show. I haven't seen it yet but it would be really cool to know what they're saying.
