i'm really curious what music do you like. If you don't mind me asking about that, do you have any favorite bands and / or solo artists? What are your favourite music genres? Is music important to you, does it help you in any way when you work, when you draw something, like a source of inspiration for your artworks, comfortable background noise you like to have to stay focused?

What a fantastic question, I’m so glad you asked because now I have an actual excuse to talk about music instead of randomly barging into the room with a new song I’ve been listening to on loop for six days straight. I wish I was exaggerating but that’s the kind of obsessive I am and we have a good time. I play piano as well because listening isn’t enough— it’s a huge source of joy and inspiration in so many different ways and I have lots of playlists dedicated to different projects. Joy is subjective because 99% of it is sad.

Genres, I love all classical but mostly romantic and baroque. Rachmaninoff is my man and he has tough competition. His work has such a deep, aching melancholy about it that I really connect with and this rare, incredible euphoria that when it opens up it’s so magical. I also listen to a lot of Orthodox chant. It just really does something. I swear I'm trying to keep this short, but if I could only have a few for the rest of my life it would be these:

Souvenir de Florence in D Minor, Op. 70: IV. - Tchaikovsky (especially Borodin Quartet and Academy of St. Martin in the Fields versions)

Elegie in E-Flat Minor, Op. 3, No. 1 - Rachmaninoff

Vespers, Op. 37: VI. - Rachmaninoff

Prelude in G-Minor, Op. 23, No. 5 - Rachmaninoff (there's an actual recording of him on youtube playing this and it's my favorite)

13 Preludes, Op. 32, No. 10 - Rachmaninoff sorry

Rinaldo: Overture - Handel (especially organ versions)

Hungarian Rhapsody No. 16 - Liszt (If you don't like subdued classical please just wait for it)

Romanian Folk Dances - Bela Bartok (favorite recordings Stuttgart Chamber Orchestra and Balazs Solokay)

Thy Ressurection - performed by Monks Choir of Pechersk Monastery

Kolyadka - performed by Monks Choir of Pechersk Monastery

Agni Parthene - performed by Valaam monastic choir

And then last but not least deserves honorable mention. The shanties. The folk. It's a good playlist.
