In the face of the COVID-19 outbreak, many musicians quickly responded positively and quickly. In particular, some musicians living in Wuhan City, central China's Hubei Province, or with experiences in Wuhan, have been thinking about how to contribute.

For a time, a large number of public music works have been appearing on the internet to encourage the people of Wuhan and the whole country.

"Stand As One" was created by China Media Group (CMG) based on the fight against the COVID-19. The title calls on people around the world to unite in the fight against the pandemic. Performed by people from different countries like , Algeria, China, Italy, Japan, Kenya, Russia, the UK and U.S., the song represents the solidarity of all nations and conveys the world's aspiration to beat the virus as one.

The creative team dedicated the song to all frontline health workers, emergency service personnel and all the selfless individuals who keep society going during the pandemic.

Although music doesn't treat the disease, it is a link between people and a powerful motivator, touching everyone's hearts. 

In this special period, digital music platforms and music artists' joint efforts to let more and more people feel the power of music, like the song says: "We will stand as one. The time will come when danger's gone."
