Can someone help me choose a piece for my Freestyle 1 ice skating program?

Question

I'm an adult skater, and my coach gave me the go-ahead to prepare for my ISI Freestyle 1 test.  I'm planning on testing in December, depending on what dates would be available. My coach is letting me choose my music, and I'm stuck between two choices I've made.  My piece can only be 1:30, and I'm  One option is the Main Titles theme from "The Cider House." The other option is Franz Lizst's "Liebestraum."  

A link to the Liszt is http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y6hdDOFtW64
and the link to the "Cider House" is http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q2H8p4uqCZ0

As a classically trained musician (flutist), I love the thought of skating to a gorgeous classical piece, but I'm also really drawn to the other one as well....help!

Oh, I do love Liebestraum! Some of my favourite programs ever are to that beautiful music. Ilia Kulik's is always my absolute favourite, although I do love Jason Brown's interpretation.

However, you might want to think about waiting on Liebestraum. It is such a beautiful piece, do you think you can do it justice in 1:30?

Maybe you can save Liebestraum for later. I know I am. Then you could use the other one now.
