A reorchestration of Final Hours from The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask. It was originally composed by Koji Kondo, and therefore all rights go to him and to Nintendo.
Though there's a certain something about the original that will NEVER be beaten by any arrangement, I thought I'd try my hand at this legendary song. Isn't it crazy how just a handful of chords voiced in the right way can evoke so many emotions? This piece is another prime example of Koji Kondo's mastery over music - being able to so perfectly convey the exact emotions you'd expect from a piece of music written for the end of the word. It's almost as if this song continually rises and falls with the Kübler-Ross cylcle of grief; a sense of initial anger and denial with the opening chords which shift and modulate into C minor and begin stepping chromatically - a more eerie progression signifying bargaining and depression before rising in tension to the piece's climax and dropping down to the subdominant and resolving, acceptance - before repeating again.
I'll never forget the first time I played this game, having literally NO idea what to do, running out of time and seeing that terrifying destruction sequence - wow does this game really make you feel absolutely terrible for failing (and rightly so!)
