Interests & Hobbies
Favorite Books:
Most of all I like to read about the life of great musicians, for example, about G. Neuhaus, S. Rachmaninoff, V. Gieseking. Also very interesting for me are the works of J.R.
Tolkien and R. Sheckley, science fiction writers open the imagination to new experiences. A book is a satellite life, especially when it fulfills a musical experience and can be an impetus for a reorganization of thinking.
Favorite Songs:
With regards to music - you can write a treatise about it. This is because since childhood I have been fond of various types of performance of absolutely different musical genres. Of course, one can start from the Baroque era - Bach, Handel; from classical Beethoven; most of all in my head the music of the era of romanticism sounds - Rachmaninoff, Scriabin, Chopin, Liszt, Schumann, Schubert; and later - Prokofiev, Shostakovich, Schnidke, Skorik and many others whom I forgot at the moment :)
A special attitude to the jazz direction - from the origins of ragtime to the complex traditions of bebop. And, of course, rock music.
Favorite Movies:
A skillful invention of mankind is cinema. I like to look at adaptations of works by various writers, find similarities and differences in them with the book. It is also interesting to observe the disclosure of directorial talents, how the style of their work changes (or remains) for various directors. My favorite movie that I can watch forever is Peter Jackson's The Lord of the Rings. It harmoniously combines both sound solutions and editing, acting and the production itself. At one time, F. F. Coppola really liked The Godfather and Apocalypse Now. Parallel to my love for good films, I have a love for animation.
Hobbies:
My hobbies are growing houseplants and drawing. These two activities are very distracting from the daily bustle of the city. Nothing could be better in your free time to get paints and express emotions through brush strokes. And plants are a separate world that grows only when you love them sincerely.
Perfect Mate:
An ideal mate is a person who is interested in and respects personal space and time.
Perfect Date:
The perfect date is at sunset by the sea, with dry wine and cheese, watching the dogs run along the beach.
