2018-19 Programs and Choreographers

Gracie skated to that too. It's from the Mr&Mrs Smith soundtrack, but unfortunately it was on the downside of Gracie's career post 2016 Worlds... It'll be interesting to see what Liza can do with this fun tango music.

The most spectacular Mr & Mrs Smith programme was Adrian Schultheiss's 2008 free ("shooting" the judges, while in a cantilever - priceless!; around 4:45): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e2iqusRYlHE

I don't expect Liza's sp to be that voidy, but I'm sure it's going to be fun anyway :).
 
Article on Brazil's Isadora Williams who has decided to continue competing this season and plans to debut her programs at the Chesapeake Open club competition later this week: http://www.brasilzerograu.com/2018/06/isadora-williams-novos-programas-saltos-pre-temporada.html

From the machine translation, her short program music is "Take Five" by Dave Brubeck "but with a more Brazilian rhythm, reminding Carnival" and her free skate music "will be a mix of songs from the malaguenha rhythm of singer Natalia Lafourcade."

I haven't seen it yet but this wins my vote for men's program of the year. Sorry, Nathan, don't care what goddess M-F gives you...

Will probably have a feel much like Makarova's SP in 2012, 2013 to Maria and the Violin's String which makes my top 10 all-time SP list. Hoping Dima is mature enough at this stage of his career to make this program all it can be. I'm optimistic.

Ah thanks. Adrian's career was way too short, cut down by nagging injury. He was very creative and talented in his approach to his skating and music selection, which is sorely missed.
 
Katia also just posted a snippet of the opening choreo - I think for their FS? - on her instagram story.

This is the same SP music that Della Monica/Guarise are using. Should be interesting to compare ....
 
Deniss Vasiljevs will have 1 of his competitive programs choreographed by contemporary dancer Kenta Kojiri (he has previously worked with other skaters from Champery).

It was posted earlier in this thread that Andrew Torgashev's SP is to "Open Arms" by Journey - his relevant journal excerpt re. this program and the choreographers ( "I took on the role of choreographer this season [and] worked with Evgeni Platov and Scott Brown") is linked in the U.S. Men's news thread here: https://www.fsuniverse.net/forum/th...icles-latest-news.102845/page-35#post-5377650
