Allen Yu is a pianist, singer-songwriter, and composer. His music can be classified as exploratory. With each piece, alongside the vocals, he holds space for thematic discovery via instrumentals. It’s a beautiful way to surround the topic with articulate and inarticulate perspectives. In his latest single, ‘One Shared Destiny’, he unravels, with and without words, the magical intentions of fate, if we celebrate our differences and revel in harmony. Listen Now!
Allen Yu releases this song in collaboration with pianist Victor Morales. Twinkling keys lead us in, its ruminations extrapolated verbally with expansive vocal reach. He draws inspiration from naturalistic patterns of diversity and harmony, of mountains, oceans, and skies, leveraging them to spell out the beauty of community, interconnectedness, and peace. Allen’s voice stretches to lofty octaves, creating yet another vastness that is detailed with instrumental and vocal harmonies like you wouldn’t believe.
The track is especially relevant at this time, with all the ongoing devastation of war and violence. Its simple words of wisdom ring with so much sentiment and appeal that it is reminiscent of the heartfelt compositions of Phil Collins.
The track is available for streaming on popular sites like Spotify, Apple Music, YouTube Music, and Amazon Music!
