Of course we could rely on Italians to create beauty and joy even in the trying times of a global pandemic.
即使在全球大流行病的艰难时刻,意大利人还是能够创造出美和欢乐。

Italy is on complete lockdown, with 17,660 cases of the coronavirus as of Friday, March 13, according to the World Health Organization. But people in the country have started coming out on their balconies and leaning out their windows to join together in song, coordinating the effort by spreading the word via social media.
目前意大利已全面封锁,根据世界卫生组织的统计,截至3月13日(上周五)累计确诊17660例新冠肺炎病例。但是意大利人却开始走到阳台上,从窗户探出身子来,一起放声歌唱,并不约而同地通过社交媒体向世界传递信息。

On Friday, Italians sang the national anthem together at 6pm; on Saturday, they joined together to applaud health-care workers. The New York Times reports: "At 6 pm on Saturday, Italians will sing 'Azzurro,' a 1968 hit by the singer Adriano Celentano, and on Sunday, 'Ma il cielo è sempre più blu,' by Nino Gaetano, which topped the charts in 1975."
上周五,意大利人在晚上6点齐声唱起国歌;上周六,他们又一起为医疗工作者唱起了赞歌。据《纽约时报》报道:“周六晚上6点,意大利人唱阿德里安诺·塞兰特诺1968年的热门歌曲《天蓝》,周日他们唱尼诺·加泰诺的《但是天空总是更蓝》,这首歌曲曾在1975年登顶榜单。”

Watching videos of Italians create a semblance of community, even while in isolation, is pure delight.
看意大利人在隔离期间营造“社区氛围”的视频真的很愉快。

Outside of Italy, people are finding other ways to use music to provide solace to one another in these fraught times.
在意大利以外,人们也在寻找其他音乐方式在艰难时刻为彼此提供慰藉。

与此同时,百老汇女演员兼歌手劳拉·本纳蒂邀请那些因新冠疫情被取消音乐剧演出的学生们和她一起在线分享他们的表演。

The videos are welcome reminders that we can find creative ways to feel connected with one another, even while the virus outbreaks demand that we remain apart.
这些令人愉悦的视频提醒我们,即使疫情暴发需要我们隔离,我们依然可以找到创意方式来感受彼此之间的联系。
