- If there are any orchestras out there that would like to perform this arrangement, comment on this video.
I arranged the themes so that they appear in the order you encounter them in the game's story. You wake up in clock town, then progress through different areas of Termina. On the last day, in the final hours before the moon will crash, you call the 4 giants. Then you have a battle with Majora, and I think the Song of Healing really ties the whole game together well at the end.
It was a blast arranging music from one of my favorite video games of all time. Huge thank you to the esteemed Matt Sadowski for conducting, and to the Ithaca College Gamer Symphony Orchestra for playing!

Thank you
cheers lad

Thank you
It is so gratifying to read all of these positive comments. I know that having such good source material made my job pretty easy, but even so, knowing that the work we did effects you is incredibly meaningful for me. Thank you!
+Michael T. Samson really a good job, congrats!
no kidding this is even better than the official arragement of the symphony of the goddess
Liked and shared on Google+, Facebook, and Twitter
Edit: You should do The Ballad of the Goddess from The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword next
Simply one of the most beautiful sounds put together. This is special, and amazing that you used the Major Mask sound track. Encore!
Michael T. Samson i
My god. That Final Hours arrangement. _Chills._
Than follwed by oath to order
If this is Majora's mask, then why is the guy using the Wind Waker
Jk, this is great.
CarbonSlice
It’s a baton . I know this is a joke but the wind waker is just a magic baton . Just correcting you
🤣🤣😂🤣😂
@@sharpshooterxigbar5713 fucking duh its a baton. Wind waking was music. Conducting. Dude was joking and said he was conducting the Winds. Might as well state that all the Ocarinas that are ever played are used for Zelda songs. Gtfo.
@@scuffed2597 Relax dude.
@@Shazayum I'm chill bro what about you? Don't fucking @ me lol.
Why why why is this so fucking good, for a video game that came out so many years ago, why is the music so fucking gooooood😩😩😩
When I was a kid, I remember playing for hours and hours both of OoT and Majora's. I didn't have many friends and I found refuge in both games, for all my life I have struggled with feeling lonely. When Song of Healing started playing I remembered all of this and cried, after all these years things have changed, I have good friends and family, and also such good memories of playing Majora's Mask. Thank you for this arrangement, I'm a musician myself and I can say it truly healed me listening to it.
I fell you bruh...
Un abrazo.
The Song of Healing did it for me too ❤
those strings in the first song are the scariest thing I've ever heard in a song
I had chills during final hours... this was absolutely amazing!

during the Deku palace someone in the audience was dancing.
it was me
Nathaniel Conklin, where? I did not see anyone dancing.
upper left, they were just getting jiggy from their seat, moving their shoulders around to the beat ;)
god, that is such a fucking mood.
funnily also during the clock town day 1; fits the bill
I used to listen to this nearly every morning on the bus ride to high school for all four years. It was the perfect way to start my day, and even now I find myself still listening to this wonderful arrangement many years later. Thank you for this absolute masterpiece,
That's amazing 🥹
Everytime I was nervous for a football game back in highschool, I would play a playlist with this orchestra rendition in it. It never failed to hype me up! Came back today because I thought of it, and liked it so that I wouldn't forget this rendition!
@@guyperson2651 Same dude! In fact, I used it for my D&D campaign recently as well. A beautiful rendition indeed
Oath to Order sneaks up to ya and gives chills
This is honestly one of the most expressive arrangements Ive heard. Great group performing too. You can always tell when the orchestra and their director truly care about what they're playing
Extremely well done on this arrangement and great job as well to the performers!
As an avid LoZ fan, I'm very humbled to see a well constructed orchestration of the themes. Job well done sir. Two thumbs up!
I love the way the clock tower theme was played, how it got faster and more desperate as the melody advances
Omg when they transition to day 3 clocktown. That was chilling.
This games soundtrack brings me back to some dark times in my life, this game helped me battle my depression. The music is orchestrated to beautifully, thank you Michael for doing it justice.
@Michael T Samson, this is both the best performance by an orchestra of a video game score I've ever seen, and the best video game music arrangement I've ever heard. Congrats, and thanks.
And the song of healing is so beautiful it brings back a lot of joy from my childhood even though I am sixteen years this is always my favorite song
YES!!! They performed beautifully!!! Thank you to the Maestro (conductor) for choosing an arrangement from Majora's Mask! I've always been a huge fan of the orchestral arrangements from Ocarina of Time, but I've always longed to hear orchestral versions of the music from MM! So I can't thank you enough, great job to the entire crew!
At the end, the healing begins
So beautiful, I love it
I probably commented on this before, but here I am years later listening to this thinking the conductor and orchestra did an amazing job.
All these years later and this STILL gives me chills.
Thank you
When I heard the bell I literally cried what is this 😂😭😭
Gold Phoenix You're not the only one😭😂
Same. It hurts
What is that percussion sound at 6:00?? I have to know! I love that sound so much, its so creepy
Chinese opera gongs!
The moment you realize what a masterpiece the music to this game really is...
I can only describe this as 2 words:
Fucking beautiful.
My god... My ears... This is so beautyful... I love it..!!

Y que? Algún problema?
I'm a 32 year old man, and I was severely choked up by the end of this. Such a beautiful medley, such timeless music. Reaches right into the depths of your soul. You're an incredible composer with an incredibly talented orchestra. Thank you for this.
That was fantastic and encapsulated every chaotic, melancholy, cheerful, and bittersweet tone of the game perfectly. Cried at four giants and song of healing
The transitions from the E-flat minor chords into the B Major chords in the "End of the World" theme is so beautiful. Great work! Also inspired me to create a Majora's Mask medley for symphonic band (I think I e-mailed you about that actually) lol. But great work.
Majora's theme here was awesome to hear orchestrated!!
Damn the Oath to Order sent chills down my spine.
HOW FUCKING DARE THE PARENTS LOOK BORED!! THIS WAS AWESOME!!!!!
My mother instantly fell asleep when she heard the song of healing, lmao
I cried watching this, so beautiful. I love Majora's Mask.

I cried too. I wish I could see something like this in person.
@@kaikall2492 x4. I still have the game for N64
While skyward sword now holds my favorite soundtrack of the series, this ones impact is eternal. I’m going to go on a limb and say they both will be.
Zelda always has spectacular music accompaniments. Looking forward to many more in the future.
What a well crafted musical journey. This arrangement really captures the very essence of the game. I really love how it ends with the song of healing, since that kind of leaves the impression that regardless how bad something might end, there's always gonna be a new beginning. It also made clear that this new beginning cannot undo the happenings of the past. Well done.
The unrivalled beauty of Oath to Order and The Song of Healing really shone through here. Your appreciation for voicing, force handling and part arranging is superb. I was on the verge of tears for some of it. Just excellent. Well done.
Wow, that transition from Final Hours to Oath to Order... amazing
Must be so awesome having such a great video game arrangement played for an audience!
The music to my absolute fave game done beautifully! ♥️
This takes me back to the simple days. I would come home, do my chores, and then play Ocarina of Time and Majoras mask till dinner time. Then after dinner I would play till bedtime.
Truly amazing arrangement, catches that double-faced dark spirit of the game. Loved the Stravinsky vibes in it too!
Straight up copied his Firebird orchestration in the Majora battle theme!
Michael T. Samson You really catched the spirirt! Good job :)
Searched "final hours" found this ! Good arrangement.
That Final Hours arrangement honestly gave me Dumbledore's Farewell vibes.
ive always loved the darkness of majoras mask's tone and its quirky nature, fantastic arrangement here!
OOOOOHHHH i got the goosebumps because of how good this was.
I really like how it's not perfect. There are very subtle errors here and there that make this so much more natural and realistic.
7:12 I actually want to cry. So beautiful!
The person coughing during the Song of Healing 😂
Every few years I rediscover this video and EVERYTIME I’m left in awe
Majora's Mask is not a fun game. But it has an amazing soundtrack, and as a work of art, its mood and feeling are amazing as well. Lovely execution.
Why not a fun game ?
Outstanding stuff! Final Hours and Calling the Four Giants _broke me_. Really good transitions between each piece, as well!
I don't know why, but "Final Hours" and the Oath of Order always make me tear up a little. And this arrangement is just perfect...
This is absolutely fantastic, and this arrangement is amazing because of the order of the different music sounds and tones!!! 👏👏👏
I'm having tears of joy finally Majora's mask gets the love it deserves
This is the best arrangement of Majora's Mask I have heard. The Stone Tower theme was such a great touch. Oath to order made me cry. Beautiful. Absolutely beautiful.
absolutely stunning. Never did i think i would get to listen to a live orchestra play this. Love it.
Oh my, the moment I heard the Deku Palace theme, I almost fell out of my seat. It's one of my favorite themes in the game, so hearing it like this brought a smile to my face! Wonderful work on the entire piece!
This is superb! From the gongs representing the chiming of the clock town clock to the first boss theme! Everything was amazingly!
Absoloutley fantastic. Interesting, well-written composition and so rare to see a performance of this caliber for video game music (from any orchestra, let alone an amateur one!). Really fantastic job to everyone involved, very happy to have found this :)
You arranged the music beautifully, I was moved to tears listening to the performance! A job well done for you and the orchestra performing your lovely arrangement!
Final Hours transition to Oath to Order was amazing, well done.
That was freaking amazing 10/10
best arrangement i've seen so far. just beautiful
I think I appreciate Zelda music, among others, more when it’s being played by a live band and you conducted a fine one here!
Im digging this in 2022 Majora’s Mask was great!!
Final Hours had me crying, beautiful rendition
You really did my favorite game of all time justice. That was superb. Bravo!
very impressive through sheer meticulous accuracy and attention to detail
the effort put into reproducing the sound of the instruments really shows, especially for deku palace and majora battle, you even nailed the chiming of the clocktower
This was done so damn well!! The way all the music flowed arrangements perfect....as soon as Song of Healing hit....yup boom tears. Perfect way to end a dramatic finish with a song of healing. Bravo
I've only just come across this, this is absolutely beautiful!! As a lover of the loz series this well.... EPIC! 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
I love the work put into this orchestra. I think my favorite part how they intpret the Clock Town bells in the background.
got chills during stone tower temple :0 gosh i love this game and its music
The Final Hours part hit me hard.
Wonderful arrangement! I got teary eyed when it transitioned into Song of Healing. Thank you for sharing this with everyone. ❤
This is a beautiful medley of one of my favourite Zelda games!
My favourite is Oath To Order and Final Hours
This is beautifully played brings me back some intense nostalgia. Thank you.
I think i heard it 10 times now. Still gives me chills!
This was absolutely beautiful. Thank you for sharing!
Just beautiful 👏. I absolutely love the Zelda games and I could close my eyes, listen and picture the whole story unfold, Well done.
Wie gemalt die Melodie, Kindheit perfekt getroffen!
THe music from this title was already beautiful and you went and added even more emotion to them. I applaud you good sir
This was an amazing arrangement and performance. The conductor did a really good job bringing the emotion into the piece! Well done!
This was played so beautifully. I'm blown away. The song of healing and the deku palace parts are my favorite. I've got mixed emotions right now👏👏❤❤😲😲😢😢
Chills from start to finish. Absolutely beautiful!
Hi, I loved your arrangement. I feel you rescued (if not all) much of the essence of each theme and the game itself. What did you use for the rhythm section in Majora's Incarnate Theme 5:50? ¡Saludos!
@clevelandbrown5709 (5 years ago) What is that percussion sound at 6:00?? I have to know! I love that sound so much, its so creepy
@Samsoncomposer (5 years ago) Chinese opera gongs!
This is absolutely fantastic! This is the best rendition of "Final Hours" and "Majora's Theme" I've ever heard. They all sound great.
i always keep coming back to this because of how fantastic it is. the arrangement is outstanding and the performance is perfect. u can really tell everyone involved cared and put a lot into it. good shit!!
I'm absolutely in love with this arrangement's rendition of clock town day 3
(And literally everything else too, this is incredible)
that's probably just about the coolest thing I've ever seen or heard
I love this ;-;
Wow, one of the very few arrangements to include the Oath to Order (the song to call the four Giants), beautiful work on the piece as a whole, but as that is one of my favorite themes I especially enjoyed that section. As one musician who appreciates video games to another, this is the chronological, inclusive medley arrangement for Majora's Mask I've been searching for.
What a beautiful song "Song of Healing" is
I think this sounds better than the original soundtrack, not an easy feat. Excellent work, all of you!
I just love this arrangement
Spectacular!!! Final hours theme and oath to order gave me goosebumps
I miss the days of being in orchestra
I never was but could imagine how cool it would've been!
Favorite soundtrack of all time! Idk if many people realize just how beautiful and atmospheric the music was in this video game. Beautiful job sir
lol @ the person clearing their throat. Literally would have been my mom she always did that even at movies haha
Fantastic arrangement. There are so many great pieces you integrated beautifully, but I especially praise actually including the Majora's Incarnation theme, and it worked beautifully. It's such an underrated, offputting piece that I rarely see it remixed or mentioned at all amongst the other stellar entries in the soundtrack. And kudos to the performers and conductor as well for a praiseworthy performance.
Why didn't RUclips recommend this to me sooner?! This is such an amazing arrangement! I particularly love how both Majora's Incarnate and Wrath are incorporated!
