thank you! It’s my first! Michelle Kwan is my favorite skater and she used it as a long, exposition, and famously later as a short program. She interprets music so well that it just seemed to work although I wish I had a better motif working through this. And more talent …

BTW … Skating music is great for fan videos since the editing program music ranges from 2:30 – 4:30 minutes.

Beautiful music! I don’t associate it with skating (was unaware that it was used by Michelle Kwan)—I just like Lee Holdridge and always thought his score for “East of Eden” was exceptional. Great video, but keep an eye on the aspect ratio of some of the clips. But, great video, and wonderful music choice!

The original soundtrack to the James Dean movie composed & conducted by Leonard Rosenmann was great in its own right. I have to agree that this Lee Holdridge score for the TV mini-series of East Of Eden was even better, a piece of music of quite exceptional beauty.

Beautiful piece.

Off the subject, where did you obtain this music. I’ve been searching quite a few places but to no avail for East of Eden by Lee Holdridge.

I downloaded off of the Michelle Kwan Forum. They have a board called “Cloud 9 Downloads”. Some are video of skating, some are music. There’s lots of good fodder for edited music there since skaters use a lot of great music and some not as well know, like Michelle’s Lyra Angelica and Song of the Black Swan.
