What Kind of Music Touches The Strings of Your Heart?

It's hard to say uniquely. So, maybe it's easier to say what kind of music I will never like and even listen. 

First of all it's so called “Russian chanson”. To write and perform the music you need something more than three primitive guitar chords and hoarse voice. I don't like Russian folklore, such as “Zolotoye Koltco” and the same. And finally I don't like "Heavy Metal" or something like that. It's too hard for my ears. It's really difficult to name it music when you can't catch the melody in the song. 

Once, one of my favourite writers, Boris Akunin, answering the same question said: “I like that kind of music which doesn't bore me.” According to his idea I can say that no-boring music can be music of any kind. But I think I know what music will never bore you. It's jazz and it's contemporary version, acid jazz.

I like jazz because it's the most interesting music at all times; it is music with soul. And jazz is the only one true music in the world. Improvisation in jazz is above all, hence to perform it you have to be a true professional virtuoso musician. Personally I prefer instrumental jazz with piano solo.

Listening jazz you can say that this is really live music. Somebody said: “Jazz is not even music; it's a painting which is drawn again every day.”
