Thank you very much HALIDONMUSIC I love you and Honestly you are the best. I’m listening to your music in the car, and when I’m meditating. You are my best friend 🙏🌸
A little Sherlock Holmes and a cuppa tea
Great Classical Music.
I quite like this theme.
If you are interested, where the picture is taken, it is Charles bridge in Prague
Thank you for including so many of my recordings and compositions in this playlist, Halidon! Love the picture of the Charles Bridge in Prague, btw - complements the atmosphere perfectly :)
Hi Luke what dose btw mean
And how is your fav
@@littlebigawesome6560 By the way
Oh thanks
Congrats Luke ! 😊 (and I was going to say the same thing in a comment: the photo perfectly completes the atmosphere of this playlist 👌 I really love les Gnossiennes de Satie, with the atmosphere mysterious and a bit oppressive, for example.)
To anybody who's reading this, I pray that whatever is hurting you or whatever you are constantly stressing about gets better. May the dark thoughts, the overthinking, and the doubt exit your mind. May clarity replace confusion. May peace and calmness fill your life. 🙏
How the heck did you just sum up all those confusing thoughts and feelings that have been plaguing my mind for months with a simple sentence
thank you so incredibly much God bless you (Or whom ever you believe in) You're an amazing and beautiful person and I hope and pray that you only attract love light and positivity. God Bless you Amen.
Much gratitude for those lovely words. May God bless you always ❤️🔥
In one way or another, something magical happens when you listen classical music. You disconnect yourself from reality, living in the moment of an illusion that feels like eternity. And in that void you realize that, nothing lasts. Love, passion, pain, grief, regret, anger. You become present. This realisation is naturally so honest and pure that brings you clarity.
I still manage to explain this bizarre state of a frozen mind processing so many emotions in such peace.
I am grateful for this fresh experience.
Well said Thank you ♡
That is called MEDITATION , and the advantage is you don't need to be in "lotus position" etc,etc
@@richardlazaro567 giggle giggle richard.. so true.. xx
Your message is so good and true. I feel relieved after 5 months of mourning of loosing my only son.
My grief still with me like a shadow after me everywhere. Music makes me calm and accept about my only son passed away. I have to move on.
It’s currently dark and raining. I’m sitting on my porch listening to this, sipping on Earl Grey tea, and writing my book. The perfect vibe.
awesome!
Hey Kai ! Nice post. I also LOVE Earl Grey tea. Best of luck to you while you write your book.
I'm jealous
Me too, right now, with my script.
What book are you writing?
These Dark Academia playlists have done a better job getting me into classical music than the any music teacher in school as a kid
Haha we're flattered to be included and glad to have contributed to your interest in classical music, thank you! What did you think of our second "Dark Academia" mix for studying? 👉 czcams.com/video/NxHLSbHOkdc/video.html
@@HALIDONMUSIC also very good, thank you
@neggit I'm afraid many music teachers lose their passion, because classical music becomes their job. So they focus on drilling techniques into kids' heads instead of imparting the passion they once had.
excuse me.I'm not a native english speaker,could you explain why did you write the gerund with "get" in this sentence,please?
@@elizabeth-nl4nb The verb "get" can be used to denote influence. You can get someone to do something. Halidon music can get neggit to enjoy classical music more than he did before. In fact they are doing exactly, getting neggit into classical music.
*Dark academia tracks possess an otherworldly charm, beckoning listeners to explore the enigmatic realms of mystery, romance, and intellectual curiosity*
This playlist is saving me in the dark and gloomy days of my PhD studies.
We're happy our mix brings you some comfort! Have you given our "Dark Academia for studying" playlist a listen too? You can find it here if you haven't 👉 czcams.com/video/NxHLSbHOkdc/video.html. Best of luck with your studies, you can do it! 💪
Good Luck!!! Im planning on going for my PhD as well.

Me too! Best of luck, comrade. We can do this.
@@amberspence8169 amen!
I am alone.. 9:30pm, laying on my sofa, entranced by the music and the image on my tv screen.. My mind is lost in my own imaginings.. thoughts of people I’ve known, loved & lost..experiences that were all just moments in time..now forever gone, but for my memory..
What are you laying on your sofa... eggs?
No forever believe me ...
I am in love with gray clouds, rainy days, and foggy skies. There is a ethereal beauty that comes with the sights, sounds, and physical sensations that come with such a setting. The cold breeze gently wrapping around you, comforting but in a somber way. When you breathe, there is a subtle cool moist that feels as if it fills the path through your nose and wind pipe. The harshness of the droplets of rain as they come crashing into puddles of water, layered over stone or cement as they’ve travelled through hundreds of meters from the sky… It gives a feeling of sharp fragility to the plummeting water, a symphony of notes you could attribute to the harsh percussion of a piano key.
I am a person who only sees rain during the monsoon season, as where I live, the normal sights include coarse sand, saguaro cacti, and heat reflections that only exist in the distance. Which is to say, I live in a desert, albeit an urbanized one. It is always such a sight to see big clouds in the distance, whether they are light and fluffy like poodle dog fur, or a blanket of ethereal gray. I wish I could experience rainy skies forever.
This is so true! the depth of the music is amazing!
imagine going to england
@@Eliamaniac I was going to say Seattle, same concept applies lol
You read my soul and understand the pain! I'm well over this desert and am ready for cloudy days!
I'm just in love with your description and diction !! Amazing writer and language skill for real . You touched my soul .just impressive !!
Why there is such dark name for heartwarming music and one of the most romantic scenes of Prague?
It’s not fair. All these compositions fill your heart with sweet aching, taking you far away from dark thoughts.
OMG these are some of my favourite pieces of music all in one place, they fill my heart with such powerful feelings!
cringe lord.
Perhaps it is our hearts and minds that was meant as dark, that's why the music fills our hearts taking us away from it.
Being a certified Auld Phart, I had never come across the term Dark Academia. I now realize what I have been for 63 years. Thanks for clearing that up.
In your defense it's pretty recent, Mark. It's a subculture born on social media and it's characterised by a dark/gloomy aesthetic, the appreciation of poetry and the classics of literature, the arts and ancient Greek and Gothic architecture. We're happy you enjoy the collection! We recently released another one, if you'd like to check it out 👉 czcams.com/video/NxHLSbHOkdc/video.html
My eyes are literally watering. I do not know how to express it at the moment. I'm not getting enough sleep because of depression and anxiety, listening to it is such a great relief. Sad how we're missing on such simple and beautiful things available in nature.
Do you exercise? If not do pressups pack a bergan go out into nature sit breathe listen, you will be depressed no more.
@@stephanusghibellino this is true, when I decided to eat more meat, it changed my life, im a vegan tho!
It’s gets better, drink water journal and make positive affirmations, it realty’s helps 🤍 much love and sending love your way❤
Ráda to vidím ve doporučeních! 😃 Tohle je Karlův most!😍 Zdravím z České republiky!🇨🇿
As a harpsichordist, I can't be but moved and yet a bit smiling when I hear these Baroque pieces played with such a Romantic touch. People who don't pay attention or just are unaware of it haven't realised how deeply "Romantic" Baroque composers could be in the expression of their sensibility. If you are keen on Romanticism but are eager to discover the Baroque time, I highly recommend you to listen to Carl Philipp Emanuel Bach's works which are an invitation to the universe of Pre-Romanticism spirit at the time of Late Baroque (probably the most talented Pre-Romantic composer of his time in my humble opinion). Be also aware of the infinite "intimate répertoire" made for solo or a few instruments which is very similar to the Romantic composers' conception of music.
I'm not a specialist but I'm sure one could find the same musical ideas even earlier back to Rinascimento or Middle Ages. All that to say that sensitiveness and the depth of emotions through music are basically timeless and that we, folks from 2021, are so lucky to have the possibility to experience them all despite the enigmas about their genuine interpretation which probably distort their original nature. It's indeed a paradise lost but I'm the happiest seeker of lost paradises.
Thank you for the recommendation! :)
The way you write>>
Love the way you express yourself, sincerity and openness
@pythonrice Wise words. It just highlights the fact that human beings suffer no "category" nor any reductive definition of themselves through Art. I am always disappointed when this topic is broached because I used to quote a very illustrative example from my personal experience, of a poem written by an old Norse skald whose his name escapes me. When I read it for the first time, I hadn't been told about its time, I spontaneously concluded that it was a beautiful text written by some very good Romantic poet because it was so passionate, melancholic, gathering all the characteristics of a Romantic expression. I was so astonished when I discovered that it had been written before the 10th century whereas I would have imagined a date around1820-1830. All that to say that indeed, anyone has the faculty to feel, express and share through an artistic mediation aside from his time. I hope my English was understandable for that it is not my mother tongue.
@@nimsay1903 Thank you very much for your kind words. I am even more pleased by the fact you felt through them some sincerity and openness, I intended nothing else than that.
Sincere regards.
As a dark academic myself, one who professes to his students all that shuns the light, I support this compellation with all my black heart.
Dark matter theorist?
...we may not all speak the same language, but music is a language we all understand. Have a nice night 💓
right 🩶
Chopin's OP. 28 no.4 is by far the darkest in my opinion. I think we are extremely lucky o be able to hear this anytime we want, back in the 1800's people would listen to this once or twice in their lifetime!!
Vdd nunca tinha pensado nisso....
The words of a true optimist. Cheers, friend!
Is true. And only the upper class had access to it.
What a great perspective you brought us on your comment Khaled. A like to hear this on my wrost anxiety moments to calm me down, then I repeat it once again. The image in my mind to listening this just once or twice in a lifetime is as sad as death.
Prague - magical czech town in heart of Europe !
Certainly, when you do not wander near one of railway stations, or Hlávkův most, then you might mistaken it for public toilets with plumbing problems. (I've been there yesterday and smell of urine was omnipresent)
@@MrToradragon This comment was very unnecessary
@@MrToradragon Just urine? Well I guess you did not search properly.
@@Pyrochemik007 What do you mean?
It's music like this that reminds me there is still some beauty left in the world. If only people would embrace it more...
then the world would be a better place...
Very well said. 👍
So can i embrace you?
@@Sakinah768
Not what she meant, bud.
@@Sakinah768 I would give you a hug if I could, but uhhh nothing else xp have a blessed day! ❤
The emotions of nostalgia this music brings out are only strengthened by the fact that the background picture is from a bridge in Prague, one of my favorite cities to visit, simply beautiful.
was wondering where the bridge is from - thanks! It reminds me strongly of Oxford and my time there - just the image of it has triggered a mix of happiness and sadness. Remembering having the time of my life with the friends I made there and all the discovery/learning, but also knowing that the door is now closed behind me and I can never go back to that chapter in my life.
I live in a Desert city. We long for gloomy, wet days. We rejoice when we get them. I'm rejoicing in this music!
We're from the foggiest region of Italy - everyone pictures sun and beautiful beaches and we have those too, but God, does it get gloomy during winter/autumn 😂 should we exchange homes for a bit?! Jokes aside, we're happy to hear you enjoyed the playlist! We've since released a second Dark Academia compilation if you'd like to check it out: czcams.com/video/NxHLSbHOkdc/video.html. Thank you for stopping by!
@@HALIDONMUSIC what is the picture in the video?
@@KS-yn5zw I am fairly sure it's Charles Bridge in Prague
Crowded as it is, Praha is such beautiful city. Would love to visit again someday...
Doktor G'Hul has discovered his dark niche of goth: dark academia. Books, skulls, candles, study for the love of it instead of for a career, melancholic isolated loners who read at three in the morning, few friends, and libraries full of knowledge the rest of the normal world must not know of. Picture studying at Miskatonic University, and having access to the restricted section of the library, and studying by candlelight, and being considered the weird one...and being sought out by the strange others at the university. This is why Herbert West is my favorite Lovecraft character. Praise "Bob", and praise books.
Aww BEETHOVEN Piano sonata 14 Moonlight Sonata that’s Classical period. He dedicated to his Pupil in 1802 Countess Giulietta Guicciardi. Thank you very much HALIDONMUSIC BRILLIANT FOR Weekend and for the moods of SEPTEMBER I love you HALIDONMUSIC 🙏🧡🎶🌸
Ohmygod, HALIDON posted a video entitled "Dark Academia"? Damn, they're speaking the language of the younger generations 💖 Hope classical music reaches more people!
Been wanting to try our hand at Dark Academia for a while, actually! We had so much fun creating this, we compiled a second one for studying. Watch this space for dark royalty core too! And don't forget to tag us in your reels/tiktoks/stories and posts on social media, if using our music. We'd love to see them! 🤗
I feel incomplete if I’m not listening to this on a cold fall or winter night in front of a fireplace with a glass of red wine or scotch.
The perfect combination, really!
As the clouds cover the sun and sky.. the luminance decreases and rain starts to fall.. so the streets start to open and nobody in sight. I feel bliss, I feel alive.
Please never delete this! It is the best Dark Academia playlist I have found, so calming and perfect for concentration :)
We promise this compilation isn't going anywhere, Catalina! Infinite thanks for the love, it means more than you know.
Love classical music so peaceful so much is in a piece already lyrics are not needed it tells a lot of stories within the notes. 😍 the power of music.
Truth 🤐
perfectly compliments the weather and my mood RN ⛈🧛🏻♀️
I agreed😊🙏🏾💕
After seeing the Pianist, Chopin's Nocturne in C has always been one of my favorites and it's very emotional for me
Most of these songs are a lot more melancholic than they are dark. I would never imagine these playing during a creepy or suspenseful moment.
You make a good point, Chris. The concept of 'Dark academia' takes inspiration from Gothic elements but is more focused on the study of Latin and Greek literature, poetry and the classics in general, which is why the visuals often feature dimly-lit desks covered in dusty old books or ancient libraries. It's about the fascination and mystery of classic academia the way it was taught in the 19th century, basically. If you're looking for classical music with dark and creepy undertones we recommend this mix instead! 👉 czcams.com/video/I0GTk19Xjsc/video.html
I don't know Prague, but I can imagine myself walking through this beautiful and famous bridge while listening to Halidon music, your Dark Academia its amazing, spiritual music. Thanks!!
We're so happy that our music can transport you to the wonderful and mysterious Prague ✨💜

@@HALIDONMUSIC ohhhhh very good, so many thanks and i go to the new video of Dark Academia. God! is very beautiful, congratulations Halidon Music!
Thank you so much!
As he walked down the foggy bridge in the early evening, he could hear the tapping of horses' hooves as they carried their carriages to their directed destination. A cold wind blew, and misty rain peppered the man's face as he made his way home. Slightly shivering, he drew his overcoat closer to his body. The hustle and bustle of the Czech city streets was slowly fading into a distant, echoed emptiness. It was just as he liked it. He could easily organize the tempest of thoughts raging in his mind. No distractions, nothing vying for his attention. It was just him within the emptying world. As the mist turned into droplets and the falling rain pierced his coat, the man quickened his pace. Each step he took became a rhythm, a dance of harmony with the spatter of precipitation. With each stride the sounds lulled him further inward, and soon, all that could be sensed was the pounding of his shoes across the bricked pavement. He didn't mind the cold, nor did he the windy rain; these external elements besieging his body couldn't truly bother him. Not with what he was facing.
[If you come across this comment, please continue the story, writing whatever the music brings to mind. I decided the location being Czech as the bridge in the photo is in Prague, Czech Republic. Happy writing!]
How could it be that after all of this time his past was finally catching up with him. He had spent so much time on his knees in the Cathedral - the smell of incense, the flickering of the candles in dark red glass, the stone walls and dark wood pews were his only comfort.
Please, continue? 🥺
Finally, he reached his residence, a small but quaint little domicile tucked away from the main streets and cacophony of the everyday bustle. His sanctuary, in the seemingly upside and crooked world. His thoughts retreating as he entered the foyer, the sound of now hard pouring rain faded into the background like an unwanted visitor kept outside. The smell of old leather and seasoned wood filled his nose, water still dripping from an old and weary face, onto ancient rugs that have lived a thousand lives. He undressed and slowly walked to the kitchen, his feet locked in a dance of creaks and sounds with the underlying wood floors. How many years as he walked this same route, putting the kettle on and retiring to sit in his study, where he knew the swirling thoughts would come again, some to inspire him, others to torture him, even if but for a short sequence of healthy self-doubt and depression. He knew what was ahead, long hours of trying to get his racing mind down on paper, to organize the madness into some kind of sense and if he was lucky, artistic expression. Some nights went well, others not. The dim lights glowed as if to invite him back into the recesses of his mind, a place that, while not always a pleasant place to be, it was one that he was familiar with, a place he could find some brief solace and respite.
Alas, the man opened his eyes abruptly, already sitting in his chair, the half-drunken tea next to him, cold and lifeless. The rain had intensified, and the lights were starting to flicker. How long had he been away? What had he accomplished during his dreamwalk? Perhaps, he wasn't waking up, perhaps he was just starting to embark on yet another adventure within the dimly lit corridors of his psyche...
He took the final sip of tea, eyes closed. The scents and tastes teased their way through his sinuses and across his taste buds. He set the cup down softly, frail hands trembling to do so. He stood, joints cracking and popping, and began the meticulous cleaning process to prepare his cup and kettle for tomorrow's batch. This was his life now. The same walk each day, the same tea to settle him for each night.
He lay down to rest as the thunder rumbled outside, knowing full well he'd get none. The daydreams were filled with nonsense. But at night, they came from a darker place inside. The place that knew exactly what he'd done. The place he couldn't refuse, as his sleeping mind was powerless to fight it.
So he stayed awake another night.
And by the morning, he was ready to fetch the tea leaves they'd been growing in the community garden together. It was always a mystery, how the leaves stayed alive all these years. He hadn't the capacity to care for them, nor anything really. And yet they were always there. So he always showed up.
Some days, his mind would wander too far, and expect her to be there.
Those days were the hardest to get through.
It's amazing to see how many talented storytellers there are among our listeners! Feel free to continue, we're hooked now 😍
I’m listening to this while reading Tolstoy’s War and Peace and let me tell you, pure bliss.
I you feel bliss while reading tolstoi, youre not doing it right
Not a single word was spoken in this music. But still it seems that this music understands the pain of all of us.
What pain is bothering you?
Pain in some, for sure. But astounding beauty in the many!
The pain of being a student, awake at 5:00 AM Sunday to study for your exam. The remnant sounds of a party from last night at the flat next door disrupt his train of self-deprecating thoughts. Oh, the agony.
so true
Exactly
Damn, that Satie piece (44 min) is so damn melancholic. If there was ever a piece of music about a person you love but can never have, this would be it. Thank you.
That's very true... reminds me a little bit of chopin's Sonata 2 in Bb minor.
@@malemand9288 chopin sonata 2...im going to listen now
I have a major exam tomorrow that could change my life, and I have been in stress for a week now, but today, I'm just thinking of calming myself a little bit, even if I mess it up tomorrow, its gonna be okay, the world won't cease to exist, I can try again. That's what listening to this playlist feels like.
Best of luck for your exam, you've got this! And should you not get the result you're hoping for remember that yes, the world will keep turning and you can try again ❤
How did your exam go? I tell my wife when she is stressed that no matter what happens in life. You are going to be ok. Sounds cliché but if you believe it and feel it than it will become a reality. This life can be so chaotic sometimes but take time to sit back and tell yourself that you are amazing and that things will be just fine. I promise.
Hope u did well buddy
no matter how many times i listen to it it never fails, I love it.
Satie’s Gnossiennes No.1 is massively underrated 💜.
its so good!!! im addicted to it
That satie no1 piece is overwhelming...
You've captured totally the melancholy spirit of the tortured artist. Bravo!
Thank you very much Adam! It was our first attempt at the gloomy, contemplative vibe of dark academia and we're glad you enjoyed it 🥰 By the way, we just uploaded a new one, you can find it here 👉 czcams.com/video/NxHLSbHOkdc/video.html
I’m obsessed with this one, I keep coming back to this vid! I added my faves from this playlist to my Tidal playlist, but the flow and sound of this video playlist makes my heart sink and I feel like I can barely breathe.
A lot of work goes into every single one of our playlists, but we're not going to lie, this one is pretty close to our heart too. Thank you for the love! Don't forget to tag us on social media, if using some of our music in your stories/reels/tiktoks. We'd love to see them, and help these artists reach more people! ❤
I am stressed of all the assignments, tasks, and tests. This music just helps me get through my day.
We are glad that our music helps you! Keep going, you got this 💪 (but also take some well-deserved rest whenever you can)
Listening to this again while cleaning on a dark and rainy day. Still one of my favorite playlists 😊❤️
Finally a compilation that gets the concept of *DARK* academia classical music!!! You can't just include any piece of classical music and call it a day. Also, the image on the video is perfection :)
Yes!
Wow, we're honestly so thankful for your words! It was our first attempt at the dark academia vibe and we know it's not easy to get it right so the support means a lot 💜🙏 We have a new one out by the way, and we'd love to hear what you think 👉 czcams.com/video/NxHLSbHOkdc/video.html
This is nice but my concept of dark academia includes medieval and renaissance music (aka Early Music) in minor keys. @halidonmusic that would be my recommendation. When I studied in London (you know, a foggy city with cobblestones), such music often formed my internal soundtrack as I strolled around. However, I only just recently learned the term dark academia, which seemed to match some of the clothing, reading, and general style that I like, so maybe I'm misunderstanding it.
Replying to acknowledge that early music might not fit with this particular mix and might need to be a whole different dark academia mix. :)
@PlugInKali I agree with everything you said! I love this playlist!
I knew it that Karl's bridge and also whole Prague 1 and 2 will be iconic place for taking atmospheric pictures like this at the video. 🙂
Perfect morning music today with an early cool California day, a pen.
I wasn't entirely sure what this was from the title but as soon as I heard it I was glued to my seat and the volume went up, bravo on this marvelous piece.
Music created to calm the soul and make the heart beat with passion. Outstanding selection. Thank you
Thank you so much Orlando! Were there any pieces you particularly enjoyed? 🎵✨
@@HALIDONMUSIC It is so hard to respond that but I really love the following ones:
Beethoven -Piano Sonata No. 14 in C-sharp minor, Op. 27 No. 2 “Moonlight Sonata”
Chopin - Nocturne in C-Sharp Minor, Op. Posth., B. 49
Satie - Gnossiennes: No. 4, Lent
Satie - Trois gymnopédies: No. 1, Lent et douloureux
Thanks for your time reading my comment
Perfect playlist for a rainy high speed train ride through the German countryside last week. It's the little things like perfect music and scenery together that make the best memories!
Thank you Charles! And we couldn't agree more: listening to music while looking out of the train window is one of the best experiences ever, it makes you feel like you're in your own film.
i drink for the magnificent composers that made me cry tonight and my loving father just passed away .Thank you 💜💜💜
Sorry about your dad.
This is my favorite playlist so far! It takes me to another place and time and I love it! I listen while reading, studying, and sleeping. Thank you for such a brilliant playlist, as always! Love you guys! ❤️❤️
Thank you so much for your support, Christie! 🙏 We'd been wanting to create a classical dark academia compilation for a long time and seeing it do so well makes us incredibly happy 💙🎵 Would you like us to make more in the future?
@@HALIDONMUSIC yes absolutely!!! Thank you for making such great playlists like this! 😊
Damnnnn, I was recently searching for some dark classical music, and you throwed it right on my face, arigatou 😀
Hehe, it was about time we uploaded our own classical take on the dark academia vibe 🔮✨
Oh, so dark and beautiful music! It was like a trip back in my old days of melancholy... So many memories..
A Boston FM Classical station has a daily "morning exhale", a piece of music designed to relieve stress. You've shared over 2 hours of such music. Much appreciated.
That's such a big compliment for us Bob, thank you so much! It truly means a lot to hear that our compilation has had a soothing effect on you. Have you listened to its twin sisters yet? If not we'd love to know what you think of them. We'll leave the links for you here below:

Nobody ever regretted listening to Moonlight Sonata.
After the 1 millionth time, yes
Very nice version too
Spooktacular visuals and music. This indeed couldn't any more be perfect for burning the midnight oil esp. over some complex subject matter. You're the best, HM, thank you. And Happy Listening to all!
Started a new page to write a book about my story... thank you. This is perfect for the mood of all that I'm about to tell.
That's great Nikki, we're so happy our compilation helps set the right mood! What did you think of our recent "Classical Music for Writing" mix? 👉 czcams.com/video/lMmLHchT4Ho/video.html
I’m stirring my black cherry tea whilst I read A Tale Of Two Cities and listen to this playlist. I think this is the most Dark Academia I’ve felt in a while.
We're with you there: black cherry tea and A Tale of Two Cities? That's *very* dark academia ✨🔮
ah yes, the playlist when I like to pretend I'm a 19th century poetry student who ponders about the mysteries of the world and also have depression. _chef's kiss_
Hi5 😂😂😂😂
Marry me
Same fam, a romanticism/humanism literature in this dark modern age
LOL, should we all become friends and write a book together? Ahahah
@@era1vezoficial please let's!
I studied for a year with this playlist but I've never asked 'where' about the photo. Couple of weeks ago I visited Prague and now I realize this is the amazing Charles Bridge! What is the possibility of this :)
-Funny story of mine so I wanted to share.
How lovely! Prague has our heart and Charles Bridge is truly a magical place 💖
snow silence and night haze, thank you
If you are interested, where the picture is taken, it is Charles bridge in Prague
I have been looking for a compilation of classical music 🎶 like this one.. All of my favorite pieces in one place. Thank you so much. It brings me peace and calm in my soul.😊🙏🏾💕
I know every one of these by heart to listen to only. My mom played all these over and over and over when I was a kid trying to go to sleep. Decades later and I still remember them. Would know if a single note was wrong because ma cursed at every mistake.
That's cute and hilarious
even if these songs don't have words, they mean so much
Very grateful to have found this relaxing music to work and concentrate to while not experiencing intrusive ads every five minutes. Thank you kindly for this!
I love the somber, dark forboding, of the slow presenting uplift of the piano keys. To me it gives me a sense of passion that is about to take hold of the young lovers.
Isn't it so amazing how just sounds without words can convey so many different meanings and fit many stories
This playlist is perfect for a melancholic time, like when you are listening the rain crash down on the windows...
Somber, pensive classical music and rainy weather outside are definitely the perfect combination if you ask us, Aimée. We're glad you enjoy it, thank you for listening! Have you checked out its twin sister too? 👉 czcams.com/video/NxHLSbHOkdc/video.html&lc=UgzlAvHWoJ36-McNyO94AaABAg
Writing a tome on the design and procedures for a new product line on a Saturday evening. This music makes the work fly and almost bearable in it's detail requirements.
This music is perfect for my study sessions as well as my ballet stretches 🤍
I love that this starts with one of my favorite classical songs.
This has become my favorite to write to. It is so mysterious. It fits my book perfectly. Every piece on this collection has such an emotional depth to it. Much thanks to HALIDONMUSIC and happy listening to my fellow classical-music-lovers!
We're so happy that our Dark Academia mix fits the vibe of your book and helps inspire you JT! Thank you for listening :)
@@HALIDONMUSIC Oh, anytime! You all are amazing (and you performers really are too)!
Drop info for the book 👀
Ehhh... Rainy mountains with swaying pine trees, Classical mansion in spooky moonlight, burning buildings with dramatic sword fights.... The usual material you would expect from an enthusiast of classical music. Oh, might I add, the book has superheroes.
It's actually storming so hard right now - lightning and crazy wind, this is my time for this music
I opened it as a background while studying, but I remembered my childhood, my neighborhood, and old friends I don't see now.
“I do not fear death. I had been dead for billions and billions of years before I was born, and had not suffered the slightest inconvenience from it.”
― Mark Twain
Thank you for this. I’m actually a drill producer but when I study this will forever be my go to. I love classical music and when I make the bag from my own music I’m excited to start seeing these beautiful performances live. There’s great love over here for these compositions it’s nice to strip all the synths an automation back and hear where it all started.
Wow, your work and your choice of study music are like two different worlds colliding and that's so cool! Very happy that you enjoy the playlist, thank you for listening :) Have you listened to the Dark Academia one we made specifically for studying? We'd love to hear what you think about it 👉 czcams.com/video/NxHLSbHOkdc/video.html
I wish beauty was here to remain, not torn apart, spitted on or ridiculed. Once this plastic world was known, for its shiny beauty in every corner of the street. The magnificent spire of the chruch standing proudly over the city skyline.
it startled me for a second when I clicked on the video and recognized this bridge immediately, having walked on it myself
Thank you so much halidon for answering my request it's meant alot to me dark academia music makes me forget the madness of our present world
Thank _you_ for inspiring us, Assia! We're definitely going to make more Dark Academia playlists, seeing as this one was so well received 🥰 we had lots of fun putting it together too!
Such an excellent compilation of pieces, both well-known works and under-appreciated gems. I especially thank you all at Halidon for introducing Lyadov's music to me - gorgeous. And for introducing Baroque music played with such Romantic sensitivity. I wonder if anyone can find the sheet music of the Handel version that Mr. Chaimovich plays, with the extra ornamentation? He may just be improvising his embellishments, but they are stunning!
Hello Karen, thank you for your kind words! We're not sure about the sheet music, we're afraid - probably best to get in touch with Vadim directly. He's both on Facebook and Instagram, and you can also contact him via his website. Hope this helps!
Thank you sir for these pieces of pure art .
Happy to be of service, Kourosh_ ! If you enjoy classical music with a melancholic and poetic vibe we have more playlists like this one on our channel. Here are a few recs:

👉 czcams.com/video/e_GjN5Nhqt4/video.html
Truly austere, beautiful and solemn. I hope to roam the fall streets of Vancouver and eventually the misty streets of Europe, warmly bundled up, whilst listening to this dark and foreboding music.
"Dark academia" is just another way of saying "academia" once you realize what a unpleasant, never-ending, and insatiably demanding a master that life is. Good playlist though.
Very nice compilation. Soothing, Relaxing, Contemplative, Mysterious.
Thank you, those are the adjectives we were going for!
I have lived for 7 years with a love that cuts my soul but I cannot leave. With this music I feel that someone understands me.
Richard Flaherty do u know her?
Sitting under the vigorous sunshine in Singapore, I can feel the calmness and cool brought by this piece of music more clearly. Thank you.
Not the usual classical listener, but on a rainy, gloomy sunday morning over some nice fresh brewed coffee? I feel like I'm in a movie scene lol
Thanks for the upload, my weekend mornings off have just gotten better
Sometimes classical music is the only right answer, Breandan. We're happy that you found a playlist you like! May we recommend you our second Dark Academia mix for studying too? It has a similar atmosphere and we hope you'll enjoy it 👉 czcams.com/video/NxHLSbHOkdc/video.html
Just amazing. Thank you for bringing these amazing recordings together💓💞
Simplemente Magnífico !!! Después de leer y escuchar noticias... se necesita tomar uno un respiro... esta humanidad esta empeñada en tirarse al vacío....
Probably the best classical music playlist that I've ever heard
We don't know what to say Donou, that's incredibly kind. Thank you so much! What did you think of this mix's Dark Academia twin sister? You can find it here if you're curious 🔮👉 czcams.com/video/NxHLSbHOkdc/video.html
This is absolutely nostalgic for me and beautifully put together. Thank you Halidon for all these absolutely wonderful compilations for us to enjoy, no matter the mood. I truly am thankful for your channel it has become a part of my daily routine and a great source of comfort for me in my home I'd also like to thank you for crediting Luke Faulkner as he truly is a very talented musician within his own work, and does due diligence to every song he covers! Lots of love. 🎶
Thank you for such a sweet comment, Fortune! And you're absolutely right about Luke - when we first came across his music, we couldn't believe he wasn't famous already. We're glad we could help him reach a bigger audience, because his music deserves to be heard!
This is truly one of the most beautiful playlist I have discovered! 🥀
Thank you so much Eriel, we're flattered! 🙏 We recently released another one, if you'd like to give it a listen and tell us what you think 🔮👉 czcams.com/video/NxHLSbHOkdc/video.html
I'M A ROCK MUSICIAN AND I JUST LOVE THE MUSIC AND EUROPEAN BUILDINGS JUST BEAUTIFUL.
im gonna comment again, just because everytime i come here to listen to some great music i tend to want to cry. The arrengement of these great compositions tells a story.
Estoy disfrutando como si estuviera en el cielo. Excelente decisión la inclusión de piezas de Satie, Barrios, Faurè y Debussy. ¡Alucinante y magnifica!
Muchas gracias, tus palabras nos hacen muy felices 🙏😍
Handel - Suite No. 1 in B-Flat Major
These songs bring out inner sadness more than those break up songs
