AUDIO: ALVIRA Featuring Sam Parkinson – “Movement III – Liberty”

Solo artist ALVIRA, based in Frome, UK, showcases an artful pop charm in “Liberty,” the third movement of the Ariel Suite EP. Drawing inspiration from Shakespeare’s The Tempest and the character Ariel, the track features a blend of original and adapted lyrics from the play. The song unfolds with glistening keys, operatic backing vocals, and a captivating vocal lead, building to a string-laden climax past the two-minute mark. Actor Sam Parkinson also lends his vocals to the track. ALVIRA’s music, influenced by folk, sacred choral, film, and pop, reflects her training at The Royal Ballet School, Tring Park, and Drama Centre London, resulting in an enjoyably theatrical and cinematic quality.
