Zelda Music References YOU MISSED | Tears of the Kingdom Final Trailer Reaction

#tearsofthekingdom #zelda #trailer #nintendo

Guys, it’s here. Zelda Tears of the Kingdom has released it’s final trailer, and the music is insane. So many themes from Breath of the Wild, Spirit Tracks, A Link to the Past, and many others have been referenced. As a huge Zelda fan and a musician, I can’t help but notice all the little nods they have thrown into this trailer, and the visuals that display as these themes are playing. Each reference evokes a certain mood or draws upon our nostalgia in previous games to create a more powerful and emotional trailer.

I break down some of the themes referenced, chord progressions, vet themes that I don’t think are intentionally included, and I try to briefly draw your attention to each.

I have a much longer version which I will leave edited less and include many more examples. But it will probably run 30-40 minutes long 🤣 So this is an “abbreviated” version of sorts. Think of it like the highlights.
