Title: Variation on a Song of Storms
Game: The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time
Composer: Koji Kondo
Arranger: Francesco Berrett
Featuring: Francesco Berrett, Stephanie Do

First appearing in the Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time, “Song of Storms” has since become a staple of the Zelda franchise, appearing in multiple games, as well as other series such as Super Smash Bros and Destiny Warriors. This version, scored for violin and piano, introduces the simple theme and gradually intensifies into a whirling, storm-summoning incantation.
