Yuna Kim @ 1:05, Yuzuru Hanyu at 10:00, Tessa & Scott @ 18:45
Yuna Kim is so gorgeous and expressive, she legit could be a real Bond Girl.
Yuna, Yuzu, and Tessa/Scott... all absolute legends in their respective categories. And the man behind some of the most infamous and iconic routines in skating.
Agreed!
Honestly, no one could pull off a David Wilson program better than Yuna. This is why she is his muse. I mean just look at her very abstract and nuanced interpretation of Gershwin and KOTV. If it were someone else it would've been a disaster. Even her Adios Nonino was very nuanced and different from what one wouldve expected from a) a tango b) an Olympic program c) an interpretation of Adios Nonino but has now become appreciated by skating fans.
David and Yuna were a perfect combo.... truly a heavensend for the skating world
12:30 when he said he got a long letter from yuzuru and I heard his explanation I burst into laughter. I was shaking my head because it's just a spitting image of yuzuru! It's just so yuzuru! If he's determined to do something, he will stop at NOTHING until he gets it. Good Lord HAHAHHA
David Wilson and Yuna are perfect match. The Lark Ascending is one of the most beautiful program and Yuna herself admitted it was difficult and complex...
David talking about that "loooong e-mail" sent by Yuzu. LMAO
The Notte Stellata is so beautiful I loved it. ♥
As David says, NDP and R&J were done at a time when Yuzuru was still very young & still maturing as a skater and artist. The best bit of that story is the young Yuzuru's fierce determination and spirit! BUT the real magic between the 2 of them happened with The Swan, Haru yo Koi, and Crystal Memories - beautiful music, gorgeous gorgeous choreo by David, and Yuzuru's unique interpretation, style, musicality, and expression - all 3 programmes are divine! I do hope David and Yuzuru continue to work together despite David's traumatic memory of having to choreograph R&J for Yuzuru lol!
Edit: surprised Javi (2 x World Champ 7 x Euro champ, Oly Bronze) and his programmes weren't discussed more?!
Javi always gets overlooked...:( I love hearing about Yuzu but i would have loved hearing about Javi too
no one:
absolutely no one:
me: yuna crumbs yuna crumbs
I can’t believe they didn’t touch on David’s work with Javier Fernandez throughout his time at the Cricket Club and even till now. Javi had iconic skates too and he’s 7 time European champion!!!
It's pretty standard to talk about about Olympic champions like Yuna Kim, Yuzuru Hanyu, Virtue/Moir. But I do find it disappointing that they don't talk about the other skaters who David Wilson choreographed for. Javier may not be Olympic champion, but he is definitely a champion skater, and one of the best of the men's field. Just because a skater isn't an Olympic champion doesn't mean they don't deserve to be pushed aside for the more obvious, famous skaters, guys.
Good point! Maybe it will have to wait until next time?
Yuzu is really something 🤣😅.he will get what he want. After sochi,he got phantom no matter they said that music is used by too many skaters.😆
I love the notte stellata choreo for yuzuru
Us too!
Gorgeous. All those impressions of a swan, that single delayed axel... especially the end when he's bowing and skating on one foot. Sublime.
I absolutely love Yuzu's programs "Parisienne Walkways" (Jeff Buttle) and "Seimei (Shae-lynne Bourne), they so reflect him.
God, we never spoke about swan ice skating by hanyu, david himself talks about it but that's the greatest piece he has choreographed. Dance macabre too
More stuff to talk about next time...
All there of them are such wonderful performers they really owned their choreography I miss queen Yuna 🤍
Thanks for this! Yuna, Yuzu, Scott & Tessa are just so great and natural talent, it is good to get to know the man behind their choreography. I also love Yuna and David's lasting relationship. I mean Yuna's 2013 Worlds and 2014 Sochi Olympics performance so detailed steps and choreography just one of a kind. Thanks for this :)
Javi is also another muse of David. He got 2 world championships with David's choreo.
Loved Guys and Dolls for Javi. Saw him win in 2016 in Boston!
OMG! Notte Stellata is one of my favourite ice skating performances of all times and now I learned that it was choreographed by David Wilson. Thank you guys!
I guess it is easy to impress the audience with jumps but mesmerising them with only two of them, is being a master at this game. Notte Stellata did not look like skating, it looked like Yuzuru becoming the Swan. I must have watched it at least 20 times, never seizing to LOVE it from the beginning to the end. Of course this is my personal experience and connection but I remember the BBC commentator saying that it was one of the best gala performances she has ever seen, so that means something :)
Thanks for sharing with us! We're glad this reached you!
Yuzuru Hanyu’s part starts at 10:00
Виват Тесса и Скотт❤❤
Would love a second edition of this interview! He has worked with so many other skaters I'd love to hear about!
Great idea!
OMG. David Wilson is an ICON. Love love love LOVE his work. Please please help our American ladies. 😭
Great point!
Hanyu was wonderful under Nanami Abe too.
i love Yuzu and he's adorable for his character whatever you say David 🙄😌😂🤣🤣🤣🤣
A very enjoyable and revealing conversation. Creative process is an interesting subject. Asher and Dylan, very good job with all the right questions pertaining to each category, and the humor here and there... How sweet when David said that his primary loves were Figure Skating and animals! Thank you.
Thanks for watching!
This was very interesting, David was more at ease than other times I've seen him interviewed.
Glad you enjoyed it!
notte stellata is supreme. never gets old
The video where it says "Yuzuru Hanyu 2013-2014 - Romeo & Juliet", the costume Yuzu was wearing is POTO, which is from the 2014-15 season.
Thanks Amanda!
It also says that it was his SP but it was his FS lol
Great interview! Thank you for letting David take his time and speak fully....so interesting!
Thanks for checking it out!
Gotta love David Wilson. He is wonderful.
LOVE the stories in this interview! Thank you all
So glad you like it! Thanks for watching!
Fascinating! Thanks for having him on your show.
Our pleasure!
Thanks for the interview. I hope this is the beginning of a series of interviews with Canadian choreographers such as Buttle, Bourne, Bezic, Dubreil, Nichol, etc. Many to choose from!
Couldn't agree more! Glad you enjoyed it!
Choreography! I’m living for this video!
Glad you like it!!
Wonderful video hearing David sharing.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Happy Birthday to Yuzu!!
Was hoping for more on Patrick & Javi as they were his two long-term partnerships. Would have liked his perspective on their various success too but of course Yuna and Yuzu always get the most hits.
What would you like to know most about their partnership?
Great guest guys. Really enjoyed David's interview.
Thank you Karen!
Why not ask him about his work with Javier Fernandez??? As a OG Bronze medalist, 2x World champion, 7x European champion you'd think he would be worth a mention. Afterall David was kind of like his main choreographer through Javi's years at Cricket and created some of his most famous programmes 😯
Maybe we can for a future video!
@@CBCSports Yes please 🤗
This video is so perfect!
You're perfect Isabela! Thank you for watching!
One of my favorite programs choreographed by David Wilson was Ilushkina & Moskovich's free program to Rachmaninoff symphony no.2.
Maybe a good idea for a future video... Thanks for watching Robbin!
latch is still my fav routine:)
David uses Copper Chef!!!
No wonder Yuzu's Notre Dame de Paris and R&J 2;0 were lackluster, David had no desire to even choreograph them :S
I thought it was Yuzuru's capacity that was not fully developed yet. His stamina was still poor. The choreography fitted the music really well. I love those little touches like the hop and skips during transitions, which really brought out the musical rhythms.
@@eggizgud the choreography was still lacking, especially Notre Dame de Paris. Even when he skated it as a gala with full stamina it wasn't anything special. Yuzu did what he could with what he was given though. I kind of wished David had said no to R&J so that Yuzu would have left him earlier and found someone more willing to work with him. The choreo step sequence was nice though, but only because Yuzu delivers it so well. David has choreographed some amazing programs don't get me wrong, it's just sad none of those were for Yuzu.

0:13 is this exatcly what i would do if i saw david wilson, and im not even Christian.
Lolllll
I like David and Jonathan much better.
Nah... they are often too biased. And I think that's why they aren't on major media, rather YT with an unimpressive subscriber number.
The steep verse definitely coach because occupation thirdly wriggle beyond a flat zipper. imperfect, lackadaisical alphabet
