Yes, the music of Zelda returns with even more tour dates, all taking places in cities across the continental U.S.

A regular news writer for ZeldaInformer known as Erica has released a video showing herself playing Fi’s Theme from Skyward Sword on her very own Ocarina of Time. She does a great job playing it to perfection and overall it has a wonderful sound coming from the ocarina. You can see the sheet music for…

For years, fans have been begging for a Zelda game to receive the orchestral treatment and finally get an orchestrated soundtrack.  Skyward Sword did just that (mostly), but what about the previous games in the series?  One fan has been taking classic video game songs and revamping them into beautiful orchestral arrangements.  Next up on…

As a fan of Indie Rock and as a musician, I figured this was something awesome that needs to be shared here on the site. YouTube user Tonido has added his own version of “The Ballad of the Windfish.” This version starts out with one sweet guitar riff (which is just the basic “Ballad of the Windfish”)…

Over on GoNintendo, a video has been posted of a fantastic metal guitar cover created by YouTube user ThunderToaster of the widely-known song from Ocarina of Time, the “Song of Storms.” This channel also features some other covers he has done. Hit the jump to view the video!

Well, the fans have done it again! Recently a Zelda fan by the name of Davish G. Alvarez has uploaded a video on his YouTube channel showing Zelda music in its full, original glory and after each one, they show a metal cover! It covers five Zelda songs ranging from the NES to the Nintendo 64,…

In what may be our most musical Monday yet, we bring you another amazing piece of Zelda music, this time by the talened TheDelRe.  He’s been doing guitar covers of Zelda songs for a long time, bringing classic Zelda melodies to life with a more metal flair than what can be heard in the games. …

Hello, Universe! I am Rusty, and I’m pleased to be bringing you another Music Monday! Today, I offer you two of my favourite Zelda remixes, from one of my all time favourite Zelda games! Spirit Tracks is, I believe, one of the best Zelda games. That is an unpopular opinion, but while I’m at it,…

Hello there, Universe! I am Rusty, and I am pleased to bring you another extraordinary Music Monday! Today, we’re going to focus on some of the relaxing music in Hyrule! The music in the various locations in Zelda is so varied, and so wonderful. In Ocarina of Time there are some really great locations, each…

The Legend of Zelda 25th anniversary concert series Symphony of the Goddesses definitely has a lot fans excited. What dedicated Zelda fan wouldn’t be? Between orchestrated music and meeting other Zelda fans, this is a once in a lifetime experience. But how should people act at Legend of Zelda concert? Aonuma has expressed displeasure at…

We’ve heard some pretty good Zelda fan covers before. Most fan pieces range from dubstep, to dance-electronica, to simple piano pieces. We’ve even heard a Zelda band before and some pretty dedicated artists cover the “Main Theme” from The Legend of Zelda. However, we don’t hear many truly quality Zelda music pieces preformed in the…

And you thought the official Ocarina of Time ocarina song book was cool. Now everyday citizens of Hyrule can create a band and jam to your favorite Legend of Zelda or Mario song with four official books released from Alfred Music Publishing’s website. These titles include Super Mario Series for Guitar, Super Mario Series for…

About a week ago, we posted some upcoming dates for the Symphony of the Goddess concert that will be making its way through the United States and Canada this year. Recently, some additional dates have been posted on the official schedule, which can be found here. Toronto was added for September 29th, and Phillidelphia was…

Well hello there, Universe! It is once again Monday, and that means it’s time for Music Monday! Today, we are going to see some excellent fan interpretations of two of my favourite songs in Skyward Sword, first, Skyloft’s theme, and then, yet another amazing rendition of “Ballad of The Goddesses”! Like always, I’d like to…

Last night, I had the honor of attending the world premier of the complete four-movement Symphony of the Goddesses in Dallas, Texas. Late last year, many Legend of Zelda fans, including some members of the Zelda Universe team, were given a taste of the symphony at special 25th anniversary concert events. When Skyward Sword was…
