LOS ANGELES, Calif., May 15, 2020 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) — With lyrics inspired by famed poet, Lord Byron, Gabriele Ciampi\u2019s, \u201cShe Walks in Beauty\u201d was composed and orchestrated by him to pay tribute to the heroes on the frontline of the current pandemic. This eloquent music video serves as a glimmer of light at the end of the tunnel with the promise of a return to normal. The video and song will be released, worldwide, on May 15 by Universal Music Group.<\/p>\n

\"Gabriele
\nCiampi, a globally-acclaimed musician, was struck by how Byron\u2019s poem could be musically translated into a pandemic metaphor.<\/p>\n

\u201cByron writes about how a woman\u2019s beauty is in harmony with the natural forces of light and dark, much like the opposing forces society is currently dealing with \u2013 the daily uncertainty balanced by the future of hope,\u201d he says.<\/p>\n

The darkness of the night represents uncertainty and the fear of a terrible, unknown disease. But, when the woman\u2019s gaze lights up and she smiles again, it\u2019s the hope of returning to normality.<\/p>\n

Ciampi, who typically composes and orchestrates, plays piano in this new release too. And, it\u2019s original orchestration and arrangement was all done while he was in quarantine.<\/p>\n

Video footage epitomizes how this tragedy escalated and affected people across the world, with a focus on Italy, China and the United States. Moving images include Pope Francis\u2019 prayer in the deserted square; coffins in the mass grave on New York City\u2019s Hart Island; a nurse collapsing on her computer keyboard; the procession of military trucks through Bergamo loaded with dead bodies; and many others. And then \u2013 a light of hope.<\/p>\n

A baby is born to a recovered patient who leaves the hospital to the applause of nurses, and tricolor arrows crisscross the sky like musical notes on the score of this hymn which is dedicated to frontline heroes.<\/p>\n

\"She
\n\u201cGenerously lending her voice to this project is my friend Teura, an Italian singer,\u201d Ciampi says. \u201cTeura is an artist and single mother of two young daughters living in the Italian countryside province of Ostia. She supplements her income as an artist and supports her family by operating a small cafe which was closed because of the pandemic. She represents the many single mothers in Italy currently trying to overcome the insecurity of supporting a family while not able to make a living.\u201d<\/p>\n
