Sorry, someone said it was Phantom Menace and since the first bit (Till the lutz probably) of the music is rather similar I thought it was. But now I hear it wasnt. Considering how much I love LotR and its soundtrack I cant belive how could I miss it... I even created a lp from LotR music...:D Amazing program tbw...
Yes, all the music here is from LOTR. I think you may be confused with one of Todd's short programs from the 2000/2001 season - "Xotica." He performed "Xotica" at 2001 Worlds, and there are some pieces of "The Phantom Menace" in that program.
This program is what Figureskating is all about...it is excellent technically,but also is excellent in true artistry...that combination is not as common today due to the messed up new judging system...Todd Eldredge is one of my favorite skaters of all time...Thanks for posting this!
Classy young man and a true performer, so consistent.

I'm really impressed with Todd. He's in his late 30s now and he was amazing at SOI this year!

Do you have his Short Program? He tied with Goebel, which is very unusual for that segment of the competition. I'd like to compare the performances.

I would never combine Phantom Menace with LotR.... Bu it sounded great. He is amazingly artistic anyway!!

@Ardenis9 Phantom Menace? Where do you hear that? All the music here is from LOTR:FOTR.
And In chronological order too! Good on you Todd Eldredge!

You're welcome!!! I agree about the programs under the new judging system.. many of them look very similar today.

He entered the last spin with so much speed I was afraid for a moment he was going to fall over before he started. Awesome ending.

Hate it that they have to now include quads in competition. They should just let them do whatever jumps and/or spins, footwork that they want to do.
