Origin[edit]
This is an orchestration of the title theme of the NES game The Legend of Zelda, taken directly from Brawl. Here, the track uses a heavy choir for the opening, and proceeds onwards with a combination of orchestra and choir, with electric guitar laid in. When the track reaches the segment that represents the Dungeon Theme from the same game, the score switches over to viola, backed up by a powerful organ, before looping.

Though named after the theme for the Tal Tal Mountain Range from The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening, this theme only comprises a small portion of the track. Instead, it is mainly a remix of the music piece that played in the overworld of Koholint Island from the same game, which is itself a remix of The Legend of Zelda's main theme. The Koholint Island theme was also used for the overworlds of Holdrum and Labrynna in The Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Ages and Seasons, respectively. This remix is faster-paced than its original version, using a drum-and-bass-inspired techno style and including a newly-composed bridge.

| Link | [16] |
Origin[edit]
As the title would imply, this arrangement is a remix of several music pieces in The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time. This track starts as a remix of Zelda's Lullaby (a theme originating from The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past), then transitions into the Sun's Song, a small extract of Minuet of Forest and Bolero of Fire, all remixed on an ocarina to be reminiscent of how Link would play these songs on the Ocarina of Time. A very small part is taken from the Boss introduction theme, remixed on a piano, before reverting back to the ocarina to remix the Windmill Hut, which is the basis for the Song of Storms.
After this, the arrangement switches to a full orchestra in order to remix the Lon Lon Ranch theme (which is the basis for Epona's Song), the Temple of Time theme (the basis for the Song of Time), and Saria's Song. The Saria's Song remix could be considered a remix of The Lost Woods, as under normal circumstances, Link would not play the full song on his ocarina, but if he plays the piece to Darunia, Saria's Song will be extended. After Saria's Song ends, the song will loop, reverting back to ocarina-based remixes.

A remix of the Termina Field theme from The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask. Like the original track, this arrangement begins with the Sun's Song, originating from The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time, which most notably played whenever daylight began in Ocarina of Time, and Majora's Mask. The track then transitions into the track that played when Link entered Termina Field, which in itself is a more ominous arrangement of The Legend of Zelda's main/overworld theme, befitting the game's apocalyptic nature. The overall piece has an adventurous orchestral rock style with prominent violin, tin whistle and electric guitar, elaborating upon the original march-style song; it loops twice, with the second loop raising the key a half step.
The violin, electric guitar, and tin whistle were performed by Kon Shirasu, Hiroaki Tsutsumi, and Akio Noguchi, respectively.[1]

This track is credited as a direct port from The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess, but is actually adapted from The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess Official Soundtrack, being first used in Brawl. The soundbytes within the medley are direct ports, however, with the exception of a vocal chorus which was present in the soundtrack but not used in-game. This track starts off as the sound that plays when Link enters Hyrule Field at any point other than the day, before transitioning into the daytime horseback theme. Parts of the 'on-foot' theme of the Hyrule Field theme are mixed in as well. Unlike the other two Zelda field themes, this one does not play the morning sunrise tune. Instead, there is a short jingle at the start, which is what played in the original game as Link entered Hyrule Field at any other time during the day.

This song is an orchestrated remix and a medley of several tracks from The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess, though it mainly encompasses "Midna's Lament", which originally played when Wolf Link carried an injured Midna to Princess Zelda. It also features "Midna's Theme" (which played in cutscenes involving Midna and is incorporated into other songs like "Midna's Lament"), "Light Spirit's Elegy" (which itself is a remix of "Menu Select", a staple from The Legend of Zelda series, the latter which appears in another song), and "Ending"; the latter two played in the final cutscene before the credits, where Midna's true form is restored. This remix replaces the now-removed version that was used in Brawl and SSB4, which was ported directly from the original game. The song starts as a light melody on strings, reflecting the original, somber piano-based song, and gradually introduces woodwinds and brass while becoming more intense in instrumentation.

Ballad of the Goddess is a recurring theme in The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword. It is a traditional Skyloft musical tune that has been passed down for generations, and through the reversal of audio becomes the recurring Zelda's Lullaby theme originating from The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past. This orchestral rock remix of Ballad of the Goddess is combined with the theme of one of the game's two main antagonists, Ghirahim. This theme was arranged by Ryo Nagamatsu, composer for several titles in The Legend of Zelda franchise.
