Song of Healing - Zelda: Majora's Mask║Reorchestration

A reorchestration of the Song of Healing 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.
Hello everyone - I hope you've all been doing well and staying safe! In light of everything's that's been going on the past couple of months, I thought it would be fitting to cover this hauntingly beautiful piece from Majora's Mask. The Song of Healing has always been a personal favourite of mine - it was the very first song I ever taught myself how to play on the piano many, many years ago and just has that 'something' that has always stuck with me in ways I can't really describe. There's a sadness to it, definitely - a hint of melancholy and longing, yet remarkably... happy, and serene? In game, it's used to heal troubled spirits and souls and honestly I don't think any other piece of music could have represented this more perfectly.

Rather soothing melody... I can feel my sorrows leaving through it..

THIS is SO beautiful. I'm really really sad this doesn't have more views. You've captured the soul and message of the song and recreated it with today's instrument's and sound. thank you SO much

This was simply gorgeous Matthew. 100% worth the 3 month wait. Simply put, this was by far the best version of this song I’ve ever heard, besides maybe Theophany. Every second of it was absolutely gorgeous, and does complete justice to the original. You are by far the most underrated musician on this platform. You’re the best remixer I’ve ever heard, again only second to Theophany. Keep up the incredible work dude, you’re going places.

Thank you so, so, SO much Jacob - it honestly means more than anything to hear that, you are too kind my friend 😊 Coming out of my hiatus, I definitely aimed for the highest quality possible for this track (and absolutely took a few notes from Theophany's book for this one in terms of mixing and mastering haha). I'm so glad you enjoyed and I hope you've been doing well and staying safe!

This is amazing!! The ambiance and atmosphere is just incredible - reminds me a little bit of the Hollow Knight OST! Such a perfect song to cover right now and you did a fantastic job with it.

[@MatthewNewsomeComposer]

Thank you so very much pixel! ^_^ The Hollow Knight OST was definitely a big inspiration! Such a wonderful soundtrack with so many amazing pieces (a lot of which I'd love to cover one day). It was so much fun experimenting with all the different textures and trying to weave them together.

This is beautiful Matthew, it alternates between very peaceful and more melodic phases, well done :)

Awesome job... love the use of the swirling masks animation. Could you post the source for that animation? Would love to use it as a background on my PC

[@MatthewNewsomeComposer]

Hi there! So very sorry for the delay in replying - I recorded the masks animation directly from the start of Majora's Mask 3Ds during the opening cutscene of Link falling into Termina. I can send a link to an MP4 of my recording of you'd like?

@@MatthewNewsomeComposer Thanks so much, that would be awesome! I was thinking about opening it up in an emulator and recording it but if you could send it to my email, that would be great. My email is [e-mail]

wow this is amazing. Also did you use the original synth sound from MM when the piano comes in?

[@MatthewNewsomeComposer]

Thank you Rosalind! I sure did - good ear ; )
