The Legend of Zelda - Sacred Grove/Title Theme | Harp Cover

I like to think of this one as a harp and recorder mashup of Sacred Grove from Twilight Princess and the Title Theme from Ocarina of Time. Enjoy!

It's been so long since I did a harp cover from The Legend of Zelda! And I even got to use the recorder too. I'm pretty happy with how this turned out! I made this cover because one of you asked for it, so keep those requests coming in :)

I feel like I'm wandering through Hyrule, both through Zelda's pov and through my childhood memories of every Loz game I played.

[@SamanthaBallard]

What a lovely thought, thank you :)

[@chaosregiment6341]

Didn’t expect that recorder to sound so good

[@rudirat255]

A musically ethereal performance, I was in the lost wood. It's also really cool how this song takes saria's theme and sets it to darker sounding chords

[@brietman_]

OMG the harp melody gives me even more goosebumps than the original OST melody.

[@SofiaC.Morales]

I study composition and thanks to you I’m very interested in harp, thank you for your work

[@SamanthaBallard]

Thank you so much! It's a great instrument.

[@prestonrcasey]

Nice! The integration of OoT title theme works well with this.

[@SamanthaBallard]

Thank you! I'm glad you think so.

[@AlphaCrucis]

It was first the recorder melody in LoZ. :)

[@mystica2268]

Thank you so much for this beautiful song. Its my favourite song and I cant hear it often enough.

[@SamanthaBallard]

Thanks Alina, I'm so glad you enjoyed my version! :)

[@maximumpainer16]

This is by far the best cover of Sacred Grove and Title theme i have heard ♥️

[@SamanthaBallard]

Thank you!

[@josealbertomendeztorres514]

Yaaaaaaaay she's back with her harp covers!!!!! Love your vids Samantha❤

[@SamanthaBallard]

Thanks José :)

[@TheCreepypro]

oh snap! she plays the recorder too? double threat! anyway great cover it sounds awesome!

[@marieebesonozaki]

This is incredible. So glad I found your channel a while back. You are full of talent. I love this cover !

[@SamanthaBallard]

Thank you so much!

[@damaygo1742]

HECK YES!!! This is by far my FAVORITE LOZ cover yet !!!!

[@SamanthaBallard]

Thank you so much!

[@Mini20Rosetta]

AAAAHH PROBABLY MY FAVORITE SONG FROM ALL ZELDA GAMES ❤️❤️❤️

[@SamanthaBallard]

I'm so glad you liked it!

[@jsmooth6311]

I love all the music scores from the Nintendo Zelda franchise... And you are doing great justice by sharing great music from my childhood of these games... You are very talented young lady... Thanks for sharing another great music video☺

[@SamanthaBallard]

Thank you! :)

[@a18llan]

Perfection thank you so much for doing this!

[@InstrumentManiac]

Holy cow when in the heck did you get a carbon fiber harp?? It's stunning looking! I bet that thing is crazy durable too for those rainy/snowy wedding gigs 😂

[@SamanthaBallard]

I think I bought it in 2017? And YES it's great for when it's really hot too, or when I've asked to play in some crazy outdoor location!

[@shiveringstencil3662]

I recall suggesting this song once, and I'm so glad you did it! You covered it beautifully, and the OoT theme was such a nice touch. Thank you for taking my suggestion! :D

[@SamanthaBallard]

Thank YOU for the great suggestion! I'm so glad you liked it!

[@PtitLittleLilou]

So peaceful, i love when you play the loz songs ..thank you for that ! Moreover you’re so talented, harp is wonderful

[@SamanthaBallard]

Thank you so much!

[@DcapoVGM]

What a beautiful arrangement. Outstanding.

[@SamanthaBallard]

Thanks Daniel!

[@MikoHazuki_247]

It's a shame the in-game music can't be performed by you! Another amazing cover. 😊

[@SamanthaBallard]

Thanks Michael :3

[@BestOfPrinceCaspian]

pure imagination

[@Thomas_j041]

Saria’s Song is such a catchy tune.

[@philipbrowning3544]

What an interesting mashup! I’m kind of partial to your earlier rendition of Saria’s Song, but this has a very magical flow to it, perfect for creating the feel of a Zelda game.

[@SamanthaBallard]

Thanks Philip! This version of the song is from Twilight Princess, whereas my last version of Saria's Song was from OoT, and the atmosphere in TP is really different, so it was fun to do this melody another time in a completely different way :)

[@carmenfreeman693]

Beautiful! Thank you for your post. 🙏 🎶 🙏

Beautiful!

[@reechann]

you're so talented and wonderful! thank you for continuing to provide us with gorgeous music!

[@SamanthaBallard]

Thank you!! ^^

[@hanshans1516]

Lovely ... just lovely.

[@SamanthaBallard]

Thank you :)

[@musicbypedro]

Oh man. That was very enjoyable. First the harp is on point. And then you join in on recorder. Is there anything you can’t do? :) Great job again!

[@SamanthaBallard]

Aw, thanks Pedro! :)

[@flow_dojo]

love this so much 👏😮

[@bbrbbr-on2gd]

So beautiful and calming, really brings back memories. Thank you 👍😆

[@SamanthaBallard]

[@ManuEatsBrioches]

Hello! I came here from Zelda Informer and Dungeon. Bravo! Very good! This performance reminds me Zelda Twilight Princess, my first Zelda game.

[@SamanthaBallard]

Awesome, thank you so much! :)

Beautiful...so beautiful...

[@SamanthaBallard]

Thank you :)

[@Yadamane]

You're videos are still my favorite things to pop up on notifications. Though if you're wanting suggestions have you thought about Radical Dreamers Unstolen Jewel from Chrono Cross? I bet it would sound amazing on harp.

[@SamanthaBallard]

Aww, thank you so much :3 that's so sweet. I kind of can't believe I still haven't played Chrono Cross or Chrono Trigger. Definitely have to check it out ^^;

[@xLevyGSx]

@@SamanthaBallard well have you already?

[@ainap8394]

Amazing as always

The transition to the Title Theme 😭

[@sholguan8641]

Mi canción favoritaa!

[@gristlevonraben]

pretty cool!

[@LK.Cynric]

Another great one! < 3

[@KM-be3bf]

Awesome you did more Zelda music ^_^ This sounds even better than the original !

[@SamanthaBallard]

Aw, thanks. It's been a while since I did any Zelda so it was fun to come back to it.

[@Firnthuleien]

I didn't even need to start the video to know it would be wonderful ^_^ And once I hit play, I was not disappointed! Another lovely cover, Samantha! (Then again, I mean all of them are fantastic, but I'm a little biased :P) The Legend of Zelda holds a special place in my heart as my favourite game series and this combination really does justice to these two songs - it's also nice to hear a cover that incorporates the Ocarina of Time title theme as it doesn't seem to get much attention in the medley department. Bravo! PS: If you're still on the lookout for suggestions, the title theme for Breath of the Wild comes to mind, or pretty much anything from BoTw that you think might work better for harp arrangements, that is :P

[@SamanthaBallard]

Thank you so much :) I definitely need to pay attention to the BotW soundtrack. It's so gorgeous. The challenge there is how it incorporates so many instruments. But I'm sure that at some point I'll be doing more BotW music.

[@Firnthuleien]

You're very welcome! I couldn't really think of any songs off the top of my head when I posted earlier, but thinking of it now, I imagine that the Hateno Village theme might be a bit more on the easy side being a slower tune that has a few less instruments/things going on in it. While they are fantastic, I can imagine a lot of the other songs in game might be a tad too busy to arrange. Either way, I look forward to whatever you decide on or come up with :D

[@SamanthaBallard]

Good point! That's a really good one :)

[@RebeccaETripp]

Such a beautiful and creative soul. ^_^

[@ColdCryomancer]

I have that same lamp

Relaxing ^^

[@SamanthaBallard]

I'm glad ^^

[@yannyvm8157]

I am your fan you are amazing

[@SamanthaBallard]

[@InsTAus793]

And just when you thought the recorder was good for nothing but summoning satan with hot cross buns xD For real though, i'm a violinist and i actually really love the recorder because it can sound fantastic when it's played properly. Lucky for me, i still have mine from primary school! :D Anyway, keep up the great work on harp! it sounds beautiful

[@SamanthaBallard]

Totally agree! Thanks so much!

[@okey19993]

Beautiful :)

[@SamanthaBallard]

Thank you!

[@uriahromero6182]

YAY, YOUR NOT DEAD!!!

[@SamanthaBallard]

It's only been a month, but it feels like ages, doesn't it? I've just been so busy with various things that I've had to slow down video production.

[@cristinavicuna8615]

Thanks for exist

[@Manuelsanchez-eu7ez]

How did you make a recorder sound actually good @.@

[@SamanthaBallard]

lel recorders are actually awesome when you use some good warm air and have an ear for what sounds good :P

[@reziaelisa7403]

Top!!👍👍

[@Duhemsounds]

This flute you have to play boring things with around 6th grade suddenly earn some points =3

[@deathmetalparrot172]

Ilia's theme from twilight princess next??

[@SamanthaBallard]

Oo, that's a good one. I hope I can cover it some time soon :)

[@deathmetalparrot172]

@@SamanthaBallard I did see a cover of it (also on harp) but I love your interpretations of Zelda music and would love to see what you end up doing with it!

[@immortal_jairo88]

I'm crying because where i live was once a forest and i remember playing loz ocarina of time, such beautiful nostalgic. But the company destroyed both the forest and my childhood memory. Now this melody haunts me a lot.

[@TheLegendsOfRyuto]

i love you

[@flippinggymnast3219]

Why are you not on America’s Got Talent??? I love you music!!!!

[@SamanthaBallard]

Haha, I'm not sure reality TV is for me.

[@aaronklein3480]

the only thing missing is, that you exchange the flute against an occarina

[@SamanthaBallard]

I don't play ocarina ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ and I like the recorder anyways :)

[@gabingauthier-loedec4498]

Omg I just listened to it yesterday and you're doing a video. Fucking karma *clap clap clap*

[@SamanthaBallard]

Good timing!

[@swxshll]

It sounds just like Sacred Grove

[@scaryteddybeery1341]

Im not a big fan of Harp music. That I have subscribe you and watch your videos shows your music skill. Go on

[@SamanthaBallard]

Well thank you! I hope you'll continue to like what I make in the future.

[@gabrielgomes1618]

Awesome =p

[@SamanthaBallard]

Thank you!

[@alexdundas-taylor3420]

A lot of Baldur’s Gate music could be arranged for harp and recorder.

[@SamanthaBallard]

Hmmm, I'm not familiar with it, I'll have to go give it a listen :)

[@theyeeter8774]

Sounds like I am playing legend of Zelda

[@drnarwhal2888]

:3

[@tristinnewton7371]

I don't mean to be annoying with requests, but could you try the main theme from The Patriot? kzbin.info/www/bejne/iHa4pqagadOrnpY (I personally think it's John Williams' best soundtrack--yes, over Star Wars, Jaws, Schindler's List... :D)

[@SamanthaBallard]

Hey, no worries! Thanks for the suggestion! :)

[@eleckson]

The notes missing from the title theme are kiiiilling me :(

[@SamanthaBallard]

Chromatic passing notes are a PITA on the harp! It would sound messy if I left them in.

[@eleckson]

@@SamanthaBallard I'm sure you'd know better than I do, Thanks for explaining!
