~~VIDEO INFO~~
Song: "Aria di Mezzo Carattere" / "Celes's Theme"
Game: Final Fantasy VI
Album: Video Games Live: Level 4
Performed by Jillian Aversa (vocals), Tina Guo (cello), and the City of Prague Philharmonic Orchestra
Arranged by Andrew & Jillian Aversa
Original Composer: Nobuo Uematsu
Orchestration by Jeff Ball
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 RU-vid 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.... for tour dates.) It's also available on the latest VGL concert album "Level 4." (itunes.apple.c...)

~~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 ardor.

After that, I am surprised you weren't kidnapped by a gambling fanatic with an airship just after a crazed octopus attempted to sabotage the performance only to be stopped by a thie-treasure hunter. Final Fantasy VI was weird. Still, the song was well done. And the video did a great job of capturing the essence of the Opera scene .

Final Fantasy VI is my absolutely favourite game (the avatar is a dead giveaway, I guess) and it would be difficult to count how many times I've been moved to tears by its music. This song marks one of the turning points of Celes as a character and, in conjunction with the wonderful pixel art, it creates something unforgettable. Thank you for this wonderful rendition. Also, choosing Italian for it was a nice touch (although the English version on Balance and Ruin is beautiful too).

@daveclark3722 9 лет назад

Daniela L I agree, it's absolutely wonderful, a personal favorite of mine as well. Mind you, if you're wondering about the singing in Italian, "Aria Di Mezzo Carattere" is originally an Italian opera of which Nobuo Uematsu purchased rights to.

I remember a different version of this with original lyrics -- I always wondered what it would sound like with the old ones. I'm glad you chose Italian, because it really does give the piece an operatic feel that blends surprisingly well with your and Andrew's musical style. And of course, Tina Guo KILLS on the cello. Honestly, this is my favorite Final Fantasy song of all time, and I get such a thrill hearing you do it. :) Thank you!

@Amaritudine 9 лет назад

This was one of my favourites from 'Balance and Ruin', and it's fantastic to hear this arrangement with the Italian translation and Ms Guo's cello. Gorgeous work from all involved. I remember the old 'Final Fantasy VI: Grand Finale' album, with orchestral arrangements of numerous tracks from the game. It was the first time the Italian lyrics were used for the Aria, but that arrangement was pretty tedious. And I say that as an opera enthusiast. The version we've just enjoyed here is so much more captivating and uplifting, especially with the transition into the Prelude at the end.

@SakuraRico 9 лет назад

@PatrickGann 9 лет назад

Of course the audio is solid, since I knew the Balance&Ruin arrangement (I prefer it in Italian so this is a boon!). Addition of Tina Guo was a nice touch. BUT, for me, the big draw of this video was the visuals and the attention to detail. Becoming Celes, putting on the ribbon that holds SO MUCH symbolic importance in FFVI (from the Opera House to the possible Cid-mourning scenario at the beginning of World of Ruin) -- giving attention to that ribbon was a great idea. And the Beacon Theatre shots showing the balcony are fantastic. So, props to Landon Donoho and the film crew on this great video. Jillian, excellent as always. Tina, high-fives, hope you do more and more work in the VGM scene. :)
