This emotional arrangement from the legendary RPG Final Fantasy 6 features my Italian rendition of the classic opera aria scene, where the character Celes (dressed as the opera singer Maria) pines for her lost love. Exclusive to this YouTube version of the song are the talents of special guest Tina Guo on cello! You may have heard the English version of this arrangement, "Till We Meet Again," on the OC ReMix album "Balance & Ruin" - but without the live string section or Tina.

You can hear me perform this track LIVE with the touring concert series "Video Games Live" all over the world! (Check out videogameslive.com/ for tour dates.) It's also available on the latest VGL concert album "Level 4." (itunes.apple.com/us/album/level-4/id970301371)

~~LYRICS~~

Amor mio, caro bene
Perché vai lontan da me?
Giurasti un amor, che mai non dovea
Aver fine per noi

Nei momenti di tristezza
Nei momenti di dolor
A te, mia stella, penso
Con infinito ardore

Translation:

My love, dear one,
Why do you go so far from me?
You swore a love that should have never
Had an end for us.

In times of sadness,
In times of pain,
I think of you, my star,
With infinite ardo
