Welcome to Music Theory Minute, a weekly series meant to give easily digestible music theory tidbits on a regular release schedule. The idea behind this series is that each week, the topic of the month will be explored in increasing depth. This video breaks apart the iconic Zelda Theme to show how Koji Kondo takes one simple interval and masterfully crafts it into the full melody that we all know and love.
