More about the piece:

Hey everyone! As you all know by now, I love the legend of Zelda series, and the music has always resonated with me more than any other Nintendo series. There is just something special about the melodies that Koji Kondo has composed that makes the music so memorable and inspiring to me. I've arranged a plenty of Zelda music in the past, but I've been really waiting to do something special with this piece because it means so much to me. Since I first heard this theme played in "A Link to the Past, the melody has stuck with me and it's use in "Ocarina of Time" only solidified its stance as a mainstay for the series.

For my rendition, I wanted to really place emphasis on the piece feeling like a true lullaby. I've seen a lot of wonderful performances interpreting this piece as a sweeping virtuosity piano piece, but I wanted to keep the piece as intimate as possible for my arrangement. It was great fun to experiment a bit with the harmonic progression, as well as writing some small tweaks to give the piece some forward momentum, as well as some changes to the melody on the second pass to keep things interesting. It's certainly a different take on the piece and I hope you guys enjoy what I've done here. It's been a long time coming, but I'm really happy with it thus far. Let me know what you think in the comments.

Cheers!
