Love Theme from Romeo and Juliet, composed by Nino Rota for Franco Zeffirelli's film in 1968. The song based on this theme is called "What Is A Youth" in the album.

This has been covered so many times, as an instrumental by Henry Mancini in 1969, and as a song called "A Time For Us" by numerous artists. Lana Del Rey also did a very nice cover with a different chorus called "Old Money" in her album "Ultraviolence".

The instrument is a Kawai VPC1 controlling a Nord Stage 2, using a Bösendorfer sampled grand piano with some delay effect, sampled mandola and orchestra strings.

Updated on Feb 26 with a better take.
