The Legend of Hyrule (Ocarina of Time ReOrchestrated)

One of my goals in remaking this soundtrack is to give life to the songs that are considered boring. This was my first attempt, so I'm interested on what people will think. The original is very hard to listen to, mostly just switching between two whole-tone scales (the one harps play in dream sequences), and the melody just doesn't feel like a melody. Don't get me wrong, it perfectly suits the environment, sounding like music humans aren't supposed to understand, but it is still hard to listen to. To make it interesting, I scored it alongside the cutscene it plays with. When the explosion comes, you hear the crash. Each goddess gets her own instrumentation: Din gets brass, Nayru gets the strings, and Farore gets woodwind instruments. They fade in and out, providing dynamic and textural interest throughout the piece. Finally, the finale comes with the theme of Hyrule at in a grand crescendo. This song is one of my favourites so far, and I hope you can at least appreciate this new version.

You've done a great job transforming this song! The ending is just perfect with the cymbals and the graphics are also great!

Thanks! I was super happy with the ending, that's why I also made it a short!

Those were a fun stock effect I found in my video editor!
