Evgenia Medvedeva

Seconding Rachmaninov piano concerto 2! And please no R&J... I have a total overdose of it this season.
 
I searched on YouTube for the Rachmaninov piano concerto 2, saw videos of 37+ minutes, gave up on listening :laugh:
 
I know the competition is soon so IDK if it's the right time to have this discussion but is there any warhorse you guys want Zhenya to skate to? On one hand, I'm pretty anti-warhorse, but on the other hand I think she could do a legendary Romeo & Juliet.

Warhorse? Hmm I support Rach2 and Bells of Moscow. Evgenia is a skater who wouldn’t be overwhelmed by this kind of music. Also Amelie soundtrack would suit her well and as much as I dislike this song I’d also survive her skating to Exogenesis.

However I’d prefer her to skate to some unused or rarely used music
 
I kind of weirdly love most warhorses but the only one I’m dying for Evgenia to do is Carmen actually. Not Daniil’s cut. Maybe also Turandot.
 
Not warhorse-y but starting to become one: Experience. I know she did an EX with it... but a full program would be amazing. I don't care for Carmen or POTO (fun fact: in certain parts of Spain, poto means "I throw up"... which is what POTO and Carmen do to me)

:agree: And her Experience exhibition is one of my favorites

Yeah probably best to skip a season before R&J. I like the classical version the best for her - like Bradie Tennell's. No Kissing you please.

For me the biggest war horses are Swan Lake and Carmen. POTO is almost there but not to the point where I have had enough. Swan Lake I really am done. Carmen, you have to do a really great program to make it your own and be a good actress.
 
I haven't been following the sport for so long to be bored of warhorses, but I simply cannot like a Carmen program because of Pluschenko's version. I just can't. That's simply iconic for me.
That being said, I don't want her to do Swan Lake and Carmen. Other than that, I'm up for anything :D
 
I actually really want her to skate to Swan Lake, not gonna lie! I think she could really slay the role of the Black Swan. Just thinking about the drama and tragedy of the Black Swan gives me goosebumps, and I think she could pull it off beautifully.
 
Oh and before I forget to mention it, a progamme to Experience would be something I would die for!! Not to be dramatic or anything but I'm just saying haha
 
For future programs, I'd love
- 2nd/3rd movement of Rach 2
- 1st movement of Rach 1
- Ravel's Tzigane
- Adagio from Spartacus

Oooh yes Spartacus would be amazing for her! She would be able to tell a story (which she is so good at) but in a completely different style.
 
I want her to skate to Hunger Games. A mashup of different themes but especially the There are worse games to play / Rues theme.

(emphasis added) I LOVE TZIGANE and have been thinking to myself since I started following the sport this past year that somebody ought to skate to it (perhaps someone has? admittedly I didn't look very hard!). That song has such drama to it, Evgenia would be perfect! I'm like, inexplicably excited to see someone else mention this. :laugh:
