Barcelona Pianist Performs 'Titanic' Theme for Quarantined Neighbors

The COVID-19 pandemic might have people all over the world self-quarantining in their homes and avoiding any unnecessary physical/social contact, but that doesn't mean communities can't still come together in other ways!

Such was the case when Alberto Gestoso, a Barcelona-based pianist and artist, decided to set up his keyboard on his apartment balcony and perform a beautiful (and emotional) interpretation of Céline Dion's iconic theme song from the Titanic film, "My Heart Will Go On," for a bunch of his neighbors.

Alberto's boyfriend, Roman Santana, posted a video of his impromptu performance earlier this week to his Instagram, which has since gone viral with nearly 1.8 million views at the time of reporting.

One of Alberto's neighbors, Alexander Lebron Torrent, even busted out his saxophone and joined him for the touching live rendition of the Titanic theme.

We might be going through some uncertain, difficult, and downright scary AF times right now, but at least we have music...and each other!
