3- The Grand Hall of the Moscow Conservatory
             As a part of my trip, I decided to attend a concert at The Grand Hall of the Moscow Conservatory. This is a beautiful Hall in a great location in the city of Moscow, which has been the venue to important music and other arts performances. The building was inaugurated on April 7th of 1901. The architecture is very detailed as it is predominately in the city of Moscow, Inside, in daylight, the bright lights that come in from the big windows on the walls of the hall feel refreshing. There are many rows on the bottom, as well as the top floors. The very expensive seats, where the people with the special vouchers sit, are the best view of the stage. 
            Here, I have heard people say that it is very hard to find things, but if you know the right person, you can. Seems like things are only accessible to the people that can afford them.  The elite and government have special passes to get high-end foods, but the concept of socialism is that everyone is equal. Seems like, along the years, the system has changed and is no longer so equal when it comes to economic status. The Performance we came to see was Romeo and Juliet and other Sergei Prokoviev compositions. I personally love Russian Romanticism,  but the another reason why it was decided to come to the theatre instead of the club (discotheque) is that in 1985 the government banned Heavy metal and Pop bands were blacklisted from clubs because of their anti-communism content, Black Sabbath, Nazareth, Iron Maiden, and Judas Priest. If the police found someone violating that law, the person would be prosecuted. Some laws here are very strict. For example people can be prosecuted for being gay. According to the tour- guide in 1933 Stallin passed a law where male homosexuality was added to the criminal code, serving up to 5 years of hard labor. Gay men are considered pedophiles and fascists.
           Overall, the music was amazing, musicians are great here because they do not have the resources to have new instruments so they acquire great skills with older instruments that require more effort.

It’s Day 4 of the #spooktacularvinylchallenge by @j_roorda_photos: Werewolves Of London. David Bowie Narrates Prokofiev’s Peter and the Wolf with Eugene Ormandy and the Philadelphia Orchestra (RCA Red Seal, 1978) No Bowie collection is complete without this charming recitation of this classic, made with love for his son, called “Zowie” in the liner notes, now known as Duncan Jones. Also a nice recording of Britten’s Young Person’s Guide on the flip side! #octobervinylchallenge #vinylcommunity #vinyl #vinylcollection #vinylgram #vinylgeek #vinylcollector @davidbowie @rcarecords #classicalmusic #prokoviev #peterandthewolf #davidbowie https://www.instagram.com/p/CF8DJRUgWw0/?igshid=z1bq6rrf1gui

hii! 🌞 — top five albums of all time?
Thank you for sending me <3
These are the albums that have defined teenage/early 20s (pov: i am 21 yrs old still but feel like I'm 90) bc i have a huge difficulty in moving on from them. How can ppl just...listen...to new stuff...every week?? I need to listen to the same things for months until i get the willingness to be like "alright need to find new shit, my Spotify wrapped depends on it".
so here we go:
1 - Blue Neighborhood by Troye Sivan: this one is sunsets sitting by my friend's pool, bike rides alone at the beach, the 6-hour drive to my godfather's funeral when i was 15, the panic attack before walking on stage in my first principal role, watching captain america: civil war 3 times in the movie theater even if i knew deep down it wasn't a good movie
2 - hopeless fountain kingdom by Halsey: my first year in law school.mp3, the soundtrack to me wandering around campus, sitting by the lake near the building had all my classes in, listening to music on the intensely crowded and claustrophobic bus rides to university, walking to ballet class by myself.
3 - Wiped Out! by The Neighbourhood: "I think I try too hard, how I look what I, what i'm saying" & "tell me something that I'll forget and you might have to tell me again, it's crazy what you do for a friend" & "go ahead and cry little girl, nobody does it like you do, i know how much it matters to you" lord
4 - Romeo and Juliet by Sergei Prokoviev: this one is a bit of cheating i think because obviously, this isn't just an album, it's a full ballet that can be orchestrated differently and has different versions. So for reference, the one I personally like to listen to is the one and recorded with the Orchestra of the Royal Ballet in London. This ballet has been on every single one of my Spotify Wrapped playlists because i listen to it on repeat. There are many brilliant things about this ballet and I could talk about it for a very very long time but I especially recommend watching two scenes, both from the Royal Ballet's production: the beginning of the ballroom scene and the balcony pas de deux The ballroom scene (part 1 and part 2) is especially dear to my heart because of the construction of the plot in just a few minutes, how the music is able to guide you to that "oh shit" moment when R & J see each other for the first time makes you believe in love at first sight </3, and the ballroom pas de deux literally SOUNDS like what being so in love you feel like you're floating, it's INSANE.
5 - O Tempo Não Pára by Cazuza: i need to mention a brazilian album and this one, in particular, I've been listening to my whole life. It's a live performance recorded in 1988, the crowd sounds always make me feel tingly and the atmosphere is very emotional 2 me personally.
Honorable mentions:
- AM & Live At Royal Albert Hall by Arctic Monkeys
- Manon Lescaut (yes another ballet) by Jules Massenet (MANON PIARLES AU WHEN?)
- You're a Man Now, Boy by Raleigh Ritchie
- Lust For Life (sorry) by Lana Del Rey (unfortunately it was the album i was listening to the most when i fell in love with my boyfriend)
- Too Weird To Live Too Rare to Die by Panic! At The Disco also known as the soundtrack to the week when i was 13 yrs old and read 14 books in a week.

Trajectoire.
A toute allure se précipiter sur la mauvaise trajectoire. Les platanes défilent sur le bord de cette route départementale. Je parle de platanes mais honnêtement je n’ai aucune idée de quelle espèce il s’agit. Mais dans tous les cas ils défilent et j’évite autant que possible de me planter dans le cliché. J’y pense souvent, mais ce sont des idées qui traversent sans prévenir, rejoignant sans encombres les trottoirs d’autres moins chanceux. Une route empruntée tant de fois et que je me retrouve à emprunter encore. Une habitude mécanique pour enrayer un mental rongé par la trouille.
Quoiqu’il en soit je suis sur la bonne route, toujours la même, matin et soir, jour après jour; une seconde suffirait pourtant. La radio grésille mais c’est la pluie qui accompagne mon trajet. Bien que mes yeux payent attention à l’asphalte détrempée, je ne peux pas m'empêcher de regarder du coin de l’oeil mon téléphone. Répondra-t-elle ?
Elle que j’ai oublié tant de fois. Tantôt par paresse, tantôt par besoin, souvent sans savoir. Comme si je tournais en rond et toujours me retrouvais à ce croisement. A jamais se demander si l’on a pris la bonne direction, sans échapatoir devoir douter. Je me rassure en me disant que reviendra toujours le moment où l’opportunité de la recroiser dans ma vie arrivera. Mais tout ceci n’est qu’un dépotoir de désirs malvenus, car avec assiduité je me retrouve à prendre la mauvaise trajectoire.
Sans économies je m’amusais de la situation. Pauvre de sentiments, je n’étais riche que de l’adrénaline provoquée par ma fuite sans but. Tout le monde, à un moment, doit apprendre de ses bêtises. J’imagine que quelque part je fonce vers ce moment. Sans autre allure que mon ignorance, je dévorai l’idée de pouvoir la revoir. Bien que naissait l’idée que je ne l’avais surement jamais déjà rencontré. Ce sentiment écorche quelque peu ma volonté. Douter de vouloir s’enfuir est une chose, fuir vers le doute en est une autre.
La radio accrocha une station et un morceau de Prokoviev, mille fois entendu, me sortit de mes réflexions. Nul doute que j’étais toujours sur la mauvaise trajectoire. Le fond sonore, soudainement épique, me fit accélérer, j’en oubliai la pluie. Grisé par tout celà, mon esprit semblait flotter, sans vraiment le réaliser, comme la voiture sur le macadam. Mes mauvais choix sont les vrais platanes de cette histoire, un à un j’allais m’écraser dedans. Mon coeur, ce fou, se laissait devenir ivre de cette adrénaline. Bonne ou mauvaise celle-ci était devenu l’essence de ma combustion à venir.
Le téléphone sonne.
Au coin de l’oeil une larme. Ce trajet sans toi ne m’aura mené que vers un abattoir sans écho. Musée de regrets qui draine les lignes tendues entre nous.
La radio crépite de nouveau, feu de détresses; la bonne trajectoire.
