I am also a little worried that Tango de Roxanne, if it ends up being used, will come across as being too similar to Tango Amore (although I have to say that I actually find Tango Amore more interesting, just for my own tastes). I guess it all depends on what one does with it, in order to make it different from the tangos (don't forget Tango and Flamenco) Plushy has done before. As for being different from other people, he's always going to be that naturally. We'll just have to wait and see.
But I am actually also a little confused: are the Tango de Roxanne and the other (possibly Marton) violin music two separate competing ideas, or is it possible that they are being put together for the same program? I didn't quite understand it from Sara's tweets... Also, I seem to remember Evgeni saying quite a long time ago (last year when coming back from the Maldives?) that they'd already chosen the SP music then and that he was quite happy with it? Has he maybe changed his mind since then?
(Also, I'm wondering whether anyone has any idea if the "heartbreaking Russian music" is meant to be a possibility for the LP or SP...?)
I totally agree with you. I also don't understand. I want that "heartbreaking Russian music".
