Daisuke's new program for this season

According to Nikolai's Interview at World Figure Skating No.29, Daisuke's Short Program will be Hip-hop music, and Free Skating is might be (not competely decide yet) Fantasy Overture after Shakespeare "Romeo and Juliet".


I'm so happy because Daisuke trying new thing more and more!
I expecting his hip-hop so much, though with a little worrying...
But, I just love his free music.
WONDERFUL!
I has been thinking that it might be so great if he use Romeo And Juliet, but it's a real!!!
I'm eager to Nikolai keep on R&J.

I can't wait for this season!

Wow

I am so curious how his SP gonna be Hip-hop and figure skating is a very interesting mix
Romeo And Juliet for FS will be a great with no wonder

Oh..., I am so excited to see new Dai-chan's programs!!! Can't wait

Oooh, sounds interesting! I can't wait till Skate America to see his new programs!

Thanks for the information, yerina!
I bought this magazine today, so I updated news of this interview about Daisuke as following topic.

Morozov Interview about Daisuke on WFS NO. 29

I hope Daisuke will do "Rome and Juliet" by P. I. Tchaikovski.

I found R&J fantasy overture-

It's famous classic piece that many famous skaters like Kulik, G&G used before.
I'm sure Daisuke will skate beautifully along this music.

Great news! Thanks for sharing them with us, yerina.

こんばんは、皆さん。
大ちゃん、ヒップホップをやるんですか？
全然、イメージがわかないんですけど。あと衣装はどんなのになるのかな。
本当にびっくりしました！！
早く発表にならないかな～。

Thanks for the news yerina!
I long to see Dai's SP! Hip-hop is so different from past programs... I think it can be very pleasant!
I hope judges appreciate this innovation.
When can we see for the first time Daisuke's new programs? Skate America? I'm so curious that I can't wait so long...

Hi, everyone!
Thanks for reply.

Ah, maybe Japan International Counter Match or Campbells Cup?
That will be first time to see his FS, I think.
(If that's true, then It only remains a month!)
And don't you think he will show SP at exhibition before the season?
I'm so exciting and just eager to see his new programs, too!

Quote :

I agree. IMO.. hip-hop is very brave choice...
It's so diffrent from his previous image! (as he mentioned before though)
Anyway, Let's wait and see.
I think his FS music would be REALLY suitable for him too!
I just love it!

AHHHH... Can't wait!!!

Hi everyone!

I hope R&J would become his final decision. I'd love to see Dai-chan's R&J. Did he talk about R&J with Shizuka and Kulik who skated to it before at FOI?
BTW, did you notice that Leode foretell R&J here? Great!!

Yes Tori! I'm wondering about his costume for Hiphop SP too. And his hair style!?
トリさん！ ホント ヒップホップの衣装はどうなるんでしょうねー。 ヘアスタイルも！？

こんばんは、皆さん。

うーん、どうなるんでしょう。いつものニット帽をかぶってきたら面白いかも。　あ、帽子はダメでしたっけ。大ちゃんなら何でも似合いそうですよね。

新ＬＰは「ロミオとジュリエット」で確定です！！
Leodeさん同様、チャイコロメジュリ好きとしてはたまりません

The skaters who will participate in International counter Match USA vs JPN had an interview at a hotel in Yokohama 5th Oct.
The world championship silver medalist Daisuke Takahashi will skate LP to Romeo and Juliet. He said ambitiously "I've got behind in finishing my program. But I will do my best."


Now I'm so excited!! Daisuke's Romeo and Juliet!! Will it be romantic or dramatic??? Oh I can't wait no more!!

Quote :

I've got behind in finishing my program.

Oh we know you were so busy during summer. Take it easy!!
Go Dai-chan!

Many thanks, monica and miyu!!
I'm sooooo glad to hear that!!

Now here is pic of today's evening news program in Japan for "International Match". Daisuke and Miki Ando was interviewed about their new programs which are choreographed by Morozov. Miki said "His programs are so cool!!" and Daisuke is embarrassed to hear that.
And Daisuke also said that his target in this season is a gold medal of Worlds and he would like to improve himself step by step for each competitions.

本日のTBSテレビの「TBSイブニング5」で、高橋選手、安藤選手、浅田真央選手のインタビューが流れました。高橋選手と安藤選手はお互いのプログラムについて語り、高橋選手は安藤選手にプログラムが「凄いカッコイイ!」と言われて「いえいえ。」と照れていました。
また、今シーズンの目標は「最終目標は世界選手権の金メダルですけど、ひとつひとつの試合で自分にプラスになるようにしたい。」と抱負を語っていました。

Thanks a lot for the information!!

I hope Daisuke will skate well tomorrow, but it doesn't really matter to me if he lands all the jumps or not, I'm more curious about the choreography, steps, transitions, etc. And as miyu said, we know he was very busy this summer!

But Dai, oh dear Dai, what did you do again with your hair?!
(I don't like it when he shaves the part just above his ears...)

Hahaha, MissC, it's no problem with it. You can see Daisuke's face from left side!!

And thanks for all DTFF members, I will go to see the competition tomorrow and report for you. But, I can't sleep because of excited Daisuke's new program!!

DTFFのメンバーの皆さん、いつも来てくださりありがとうございます。
明日、日米対抗に行きますので、レポートしますね。でも、今日、興奮し過ぎて眠れるか心配です、はは。

わーーーい！！
やっとプログラムの曲名が発表になったのですね。
皆さん、情報ありがとうございます。
明日、テレビで見るのが楽しみです！！
もちろん、Leodeさんの生大ちゃんレポートも楽しみにしてますので
よろしくお願いします。

WOWWWWWW
A huge thanks monica, miyu and Leode!!!
I also saw that program just few minutes ago.
Daisuke seems to be in a good condition despite of his hard schedule at this summer!

YAY!!! That's really Romeo And Juliet!!!
I can't wait anymore, either!!!

They're sooo cute
I'm so exciting to see his free!!
And Daisuke, you're really right!
Take it easy! Go Daisuke!

Oh... I'm sorry... I can't calm down at all now...
Leode and MissC, please look closely at Daisuke and other skaters!

Thanks miyu and Leode!!!

I'm so eager to see Dai's new program...
and new costume!!!

I agree with you, Miss C! I think it isn't important if Daisuke lands all jumps, or if he does quads... (even if I'm so curious to see his improvements!). I'm waiting for his steps and his interpretation!

I will wait your report Leode! Have a nice time!

GO DAISUKE!

Hi everyone, thanks for the information! Wow, I didn't even realize that the Japan vs. USA competition is tomorrow. I've been so busy lately, I've hardly been following figure skating news at all. But I can't wait to see Daisuke's new LP! Hopefully he'll do great.

Now off to hunt for these news videos... Ahhh, I feel so behind on everything!

EDIT: According to @nifty, Daisuke's new SP is a hip hop version of Swan Lake. I wonder if it'll be something like Shizuka Arakawa's? (Though hers was more techno than hip hop, I think...) But at any rate, that should definitely be an interesting combination.

Thank you Calliope!

Wowwwwwwwww!!!! Swan Lake hip hop version!!!!
That's so cool!!! Great choice Dai-chan!!!! I'd like to see him skating to the rythm with big happy smile.

Calliopeさん ありがとう
大ちゃんSPは、ヒップ・ホップの白鳥の湖なんて・・so cool!! ですね。
ショーのフィナーレの時にみたいに、楽しそうなビッグスマイルでノリノリに滑って欲しいです！！

（早くお家に帰って今日のロメジュリみたーい。 ）

WOW!!!
Calliope, thanks so much!

Thank you Calliope!!!

I can't imagine his SP...
Swan Lake hip hop version... it's really something new!!!
I hope we can see a new aspect of Daisuke!

Hi, DTTF Member!

How do you guys feel D's new costume?
I was shocked from it...Actually.

【抜粋】
　が、この日のほんとうの驚きは、「ロミオとジュリエット」には、なかった。髙橋大輔ひとりだけ、２回目の曲かけがあったのだが、そこで滑って見せたのはおそらく今シーズン、ショートプログラムで滑る予定のヒップホップ風「白鳥の湖」。
これがもう、何と言ったらいいのか……とにかく恐ろしい、あいた口がふさがらないようなプログラムだ。おそらく氷上で、フィギュアスケートで、こんな表現をしようとした選手はこれまでいないだろうし、表現できた選手もいないはず。
なるほど、ショートでこんな動きに取り組んできたからこそ、肩が大きく使えるようなるなど、体の可動域が広がり、フリーを滑っても手足が長く見えるようになったのか、と納得がいった。この日はまだまだ肩ならし、といった風情で「どうかな？」「いいぞ！」とコーチのモロゾフとアイコンタクト交わす。
　見る前に情報を得てしまうよりも、ぜひ実際に見て、楽しんでいただきたい高橋大輔の「白鳥の湖」。今回のエキシビションで披露するかもしれない、とのことだ。
