Svyatoslav Vakarchuk's third solo project is an expected change in tonlity, The Orangery builds up a space to approximate comfort. Approximate – because there are enough disturbing notes, but they do not set the key mood. Basically, it seems – it is about the desire to speak so quietly that one could get as close as possible..

..Changing the optics results in a change in writing. This is what the book is predominantly about: about how landscapes shape us, how trees give us verticals and lakes give us depths, how spring greenery teaches us optimism, and summer rivers teach us generosity. Simple knowledge that helps appreciate every voice heard in the morning.

The first thing I noticed when I started playing the album was that I was intently listening to the lyrics. It's nice because it does not happen that often. This is important – because not only the sound matters, because semantic vibrations also weigh, and emptiness is very different from pauses. Moreover, one immediately notices the quality..

The novel based on documentary materials of the life of the imperial family (in particular, the legendary Austrian Empress Sissy) immerses the reader into a detective story with political connotations. More intrigue is added by the two-dimensional plot story, due to which the events of the mid-19th century suddenly echo poignantly in Lviv at the beginning of the third millennium.

I do not even know whether I should refer to Illya's music as complicated one. Objectively, presumably, yes – although, to my mind, its flow and development in every play is so natural, easy that the architecture just steps back to the background. Because in his hands the music matter stops being an abstract idea – it comes back to life..
