Notes from Thomas about this arrangement:
Forests are such a common and important locale in the Zelda series that at one point I considered an entire “Zelda Forests Suite” covering everything from A Link to the Past's Lost Woods, Link's Awakening's Mysterious Woods, and Breath of the Wild's Korok Forest. For some reason or another (probably licensing, as is often the case), this idea get dropped. Guess we’ll just have to settle for a Donkey Kong nature suite!
This piece is an important addition to Brassroots for its bouncy and upbeat feel, where so many other forest pieces tend to lean contemplative. We spend much of the arrangement leaning into this, including a half-time feel version near the end. But the middle section of this arrangement moves into something a bit more mysterious: the Forest Temple theme. The dungeon music in Ocarina of Time is infamously ambient and minimalist and doesn’t usually lend itself all that well to instrumental adaptation. In this case it’s used as a background texture to begin introducing the next piece represented in this arrangement: Saria’s Theme (or the Lost Woods). A not insignificant amount of influence was had from the 2018 orchestration of this theme that can be heard on the “Ocarina Medley” - check out the end of this if you haven't heard it!
Ultimately, this arrangement ended up being representative of the entire forest-themed section of Ocarina of Time, not just Kokiri Forest, but the Lost Woods and Forest Temple.
Was a pleasure to debut my appearance in a Game Brass video on the timps! Loved every moment of the arrangement :)
Always a pleasure playing with THE Game Brass!
could you imagine ocarina of time with these guys following you around doing the soundtrack?
That was a really fun arrangement to listen to! Brass always sounds so nice and round in ensemble, and it's such a pleasure!
Love the medley with the Forest Temple theme and Saria's Song!
This is absolutely brilliantly arranged! I loooove!!
Awesome arrangement and playing as always!
Thanks so much!
LOVE IT!!!! Superb arrangement and performances (especially that harmony near the end). Great timpani and marimba performances too :D
Any Mello players AND Zelda fans here??🎉🎉
Good lord this is wonderful
a very interesting take! gives the place a whole new feel.. super nice.
The Kokiri Forest theme played by Deku Link and his Deku homies - gotta love it! 📯🎺
Very nice! Was a great arrangement with wonderful transitions

Another brilliant arrangement folks. From one of our personal faves too! Love the little snippets from the Forest Temple and Lost Woods / Saria's Song.
