Qymira’s latest release, ‘Shade of My Shadow’, is a cinematic statement of intent. As both the official theme for the forthcoming feature Shadow Transit and a standalone orchestral tour de force.
The piece blurs the boundaries between film score, pop performance, and emotional confession. Written alongside Richard Taylor, whose work with Boyzone and Westlife has shaped the sound of modern balladry, Qymira crafts a soundscape that is both epic and intimate, a symphony of memory and metamorphosis.
The video, directed by Pedring Lopez, unfolds within the stately grandeur of the Dolphy Theatre, where Qymira stands surrounded by her own orchestra, dressed in a self-designed white gown from her Qymira Qouture line.
As the music swells, scenes from Shadow Transit flicker behind her, moments of pursuit, revelation, and fragile humanity. The result feels like a dialogue between two versions of herself: the actress lost within the film’s narrative and the composer commanding her orchestra with absolute control.
What makes ‘Shade of My Shadow’ remarkable is its synthesis of artistry. Every element, music, fashion, film, performance, is an extension of Qymira’s singular vision.
In bringing all her creative disciplines into one luminous space, Qymira affirms her position not merely as a rising star, but as an auteur shaping the symphonic future of pop and film music alike.
