In previous seasons, how were Yuzu's music choices revealed? There's sudden article dropping the music? Or there's an official announcement about when he will reveal it?:war:

He usually reveals his programs on media day. Last season we found out that he will recycle Chopin from FaoI but abt Semei we knew only on media day! So, still a few weeks to go! :winky:

He's going for the very last, isn't he?

 

Yeah, pretty much. I mean more or less we've heard about at least one of the two for most of the big names, if not both.

 

I think if we're lucky, he's going to go for the second week of August for media day, so from 6-12th one, but who knows at this point. I'm just going to hope that is it.

Oh Kaori SP sounds really nice. 

I love this piece in piano, by Erik Satie, I had never heard a sung version!

We have kinda bad captured from TV footage of the beginning of Alina's SP. :D

 

 

 

 

so like im all for using unique parts of well known pieces but uh considering ive seen POTO like a bajillion times only the first five seconds sounded like it actually came from it. Orchestra warming up and then glass breaking???? the taste level here is very . . . . questionable what ever happened to skating to actual music? 

 

edit: listening again it sounds like Think of Me starts right after the glass breaking so i guess ill put away my pitchfork . . . for now

I know it's not the perfect excuse, but the "weird" parts of POTO's soundtrack at least have a reason for existing, because it's the music that the Phantom wrote. The Phantom should be a literate, musical genius and the music he writes is misunderstood by everyone at the Opera, because it's not canonically beautiful, more like 19th century dodecaphonic music. I guess Andrew Lloyd Weber tried to do everything he could to replicate a kind of music that was described through only words in the book! 

Okay, now that it's discovered that I'm a POTO nerd, I'll just go hide away...

ahh so the parts between the phantom singing and the glass breaking are from Don Juan Triumphant and other parts of the phantom's works? Okay in that case I'm slightly on board! I feel like such a poseur for not recognizing it I just watched POTO two nights ago!! :13877886:

Like the audio is not good quality but that's what I guessed, yeah :mischief:  Poto is so great, it's such a shame that it's overused, but I get why... I find myself singing 'Think of me' from time to time because it's too sweet! Unsurprisingly, Yuzuru's POTO is the best mix I've ever heard in FS.

I really like all his program music cuts. Some cuts are so off putting that I don’t enjoy the program. Hopefully Alina isn’t too bad. That glass breaking though ......

 

Speaking of warhorses. I had a dream that Yuzu is doing Les Mes for his free...... might be cus I was listening to the soundtrack while falling asleep. ... but still :peekapooh:

Well that is a Sambo classic. Weird-ass sounds just randomly inserted within the music cut for... reasons which are unknown to me.

You know, I could live with last season's SP if they just took out the weird inhale or revival or whatever that even was at the end. That was just ... way over the top. I was so optimistic they would but alas. 

It's one of the reasons why I am super curious about her new programs, especially the SP as that's DW+Bezic (am not sure the FS will be something new-ish, am not even sure it's possible for that music tbh) but the SP is different. 

 

Unless of course she ends up infecting them with ~ * drama * ~ which ... I might as well go  ~ I believe I can flyyyyy ~ off a cliff considering how many programs DW does in a season :68468287:

Well yeah, it's great, we just might be seeing the start of a new Evgenia alltogether, considering that she was quite unable to develop her personality, imo, in programs that were thought too strictly around her and did not melt well with her heart. She might bloom like a pretty flower!
