Of course, Italian people to find a moment of joy and beauty in what has otherwise been a nightmare for their entire country.
Italy is currently on coronavirus lockdown and it looks like it will be quite a while until life returns to normal again. The country has been hit particularly hard by the coronavirus and 60 million people are being forced to quarantine.
You can only imagine how much this has disrupted the lives of the people there, especially because Italians are so well-known for their love of life.
An Italian journalist shared a video of a vacant street in the city of Siena. In it, one man begins to sing in the darkness and then neighbors join in and all sing from their windows together.
The caption to the Twitter video says, in Italian,
“In Siena, the city to which I am very attached, you stay at home but you sing together as if you were on the street.
I was moved.”
The man who posted the video said a friend sent it to him. He said about the people of Italy:
“The Italians are experiencing a very difficult time.
People cling to what they can, including a traditional song like this.”
As of this writing, there have been more than 15,000 coronavirus cases in Italy and more than 1,000 deaths.
Check out the video below.
A Siena, città alla quale sono molto legato, si sta in casa ma si canta insieme come se si fosse per la strada. Mi sono commosso pic.twitter.com/IDPqNEj3h3

And someone even shared a similar video of people singing from balconies in Naples, Italy.
Hey World! I want to make you smile. Do you remember the thrilling cries from Wuhan homes? Look what is happening in Napoli (Italy). Everybody singing local songs from balconies during lockdown. pic.twitter.com/sqGDQAB1lx
