The gold is from 11 February. The programmes are not. Guillaume Cizeron and Laurence Fournier Beaudry left Milan-Cortina with a heavy neck. In Angers, between 23 and 25 October, at the Grand Prix de France, they bring out others. Le Monde caught them on a video call from Montreal, where they live and train. This autumn, they say, they start from zero. That is the sentence. It is not a programme already marked.

At the Games, the rhythm dance was Madonna, pink and black, voguing. The free dance went down into the soundtrack of The Whale, Aronofsky, 2022. Now the judges expect, in the rhythm dance, golden-waltz elements. Cizeron cuts the court waltzes: “On a choisi la musique de Rosalía, avec une chorégraphie de flamenco.” L’Équipe sets beside it, in a headline, contemporary gesture and the line “Il reste des choses à explorer”. Stade 2 filmed the work: flamenco steps to be learned on ice. It is a counter-move. It is not a Seville tableau.

The golden waltz is a technical demand. Rosalía is a choice. Flamenco, on skates, is a rhythm risk. The Angers crowd will be, Le Monde writes, their chouchou. That is a hall forecast, not an ISU protocol. The season is 2026-2027. The gold does not renew itself.

The couple changed everything after an Olympic cycle. Madonna stays behind. The Whale, too. Anyone who wants an Austrian waltz will see heels and claps. Anyone who wants only the February gold will see other costumes. The programmes are unveiled in Angers. Until then, the themes remain.

Cizeron announced the music. Fournier Beaudry is in the frame, from Montreal. Le Monde does not give, in the open excerpt, her line on flamenco. Stade 2 speaks of the duo. Until the ice, his announcement remains.

Le Monde is the interview. L’Équipe is the register. France Télévisions is the training. None of them gives marks. The ice in Angers will. Until the first element, a sentence about Rosalía remains. After the first element, the judges remain. Anyone who mixes them turns a video call into a palmarès.
