Piranesi Playlist
This playlist follows the House from tidal vastness and meditative discovery into the disquiet of broken memories, then toward recognition, loss, and renewed connection. Instrumental pieces evoke its halls, statues, and ocean; the vocal songs turn toward Piranesi’s changing sense of identity and the human lives concealed behind the mystery.
