  • Why Music Feels Like Legacy

    Dear Reader,

    Music has always felt like more than just sound to me—it’s how I tell my story, piece by piece. Every note I play, every lyric I write, it’s like leaving little parts of myself behind, creating something that lasts beyond me. I’ve never seen music as just a hobby or a job; it’s the way I process life, the way I connect with people, even when words fall short.

    This blog is part of that journey, too. I want it to be a place where I can share not just my music, but the feelings, the moments, and the inspirations that shape it. It’s not about having everything figured out—it’s about letting it unfold, one song, one story at a time.

    “Sometimes, all the right things happen for all the wrong reasons”

    Hans Zimmer, Vanity Fair: Hans Zimmer Breaks Down His Career, from ‘Gladiator’ to ‘Interstellar’

    What I love about this quote is that Hans Zimmer didn’t want to do something at first—he thought he wasn’t good at animation and refused to write for it. But the director of ‘The Lion King‘ wanted someone who had exactly no idea how to approach it. I truly know that feeling.

    When I started writing music, it was mostly pop, pop/rock—and only after a year of writing did I try composing orchestral pieces. That experience made me realize I could explore that world too. I believe if you want something, just go for it. Don’t waste a single second of your life questioning whether it’s worth it. Get it done. Enjoy the process. See the result. Live your life.

    Thank you for listening, for reading, for feeling. I hope you find a little piece of yourself here, too.

    Sincere,

    Yours Viktoriia ❤
