      Yes, it has been hiding under our nose the entire time. Those same 3 notes were in one of the trailers as well.
      Also this is a bit far fetched but if you listen to this main theme you can kinda associate each instrument to a race/character.
      In my opinion drums = gorons, piano = zora, flute = rito, violin = gerudo, sax = link, voices = zonai and erhu= zelda. If you link the erhu to zelda then it's really mind blowing how well it's hidden in the trailer.

    This slaps so hard you don’t even understand, like the creepy beginning because of the chanting that sounds like it’s in reverse but there’s this build up with the strings in the background that’s faint at first but it gets louder and louder. Then all that build up leads to the flute coming in that pierces through the chanting then everything stops and out comes everything. You can no longer hear the chanting because it’s filled with triumph and hope because Link is here. He pierced through chanting and uneasiness of the beginning just like the flute. Then you think it can’t get any better they go and bring it even higher and it just sounds great. It’s only at the end the chanting and uneasiness comes back in just like the theme of the game(possibly haven’t finished it yet) of an infinite cycle. Where the darkness comes in then the light shines and in the end darkness sweeps back in and it starts all over again.

      Yeah it's frustrating to see so much hate online as someone who really enjoyed the game. I think it comes down to two things - the big one being that BotW just set impossibly high standards for a follow-up in people's minds. But I also like to imagine there's something a bit more subtle going on - it's been 6 years since BotW came out, and in those 6 years a lot of shit can happen (and has happened). To many, life may have seemed a lot more carefree back in 2017-18, with BotW being a big part of those memories. Or, on the flipside, maybe BotW helped them get through tough times - either way, these players were able to form deeper connections to that game. In 2023, it may be harder for them to enjoy TotK the same way. Those players are older, more cynical, more keenly aware of BotW's flaws - and thus more likely to be disappointed by TotK's flaws, rather than being blown away regardless like they may have been with BotW.
