Zelda- Breath Of The Wild 2017 Trailer Theme Guitar Tabs
Attention all gamers and fans of the Legend of Zelda franchise! Do you remember the first time you watched the Breath of the Wild 2017 trailer? The one that gave us our first glimpse into the vast and gorgeous world of Hyrule in all its glory? If you’re anything like me, you were mesmerized not only by the stunning visuals but also by the epic soundtrack. In this blog post, we’ll be exploring the music of the Breath of the Wild 2017 trailer and why it’s so powerful.
The first thing that grabs your attention about the Breath of the Wild 2017 trailer theme is its simplicity. The theme is straightforward, with a soft piano melody accompanied by a single cello. The orchestration is simple, and that’s what makes it so profound. It’s easy to think that such a limited arrangement would not be effective, but in reality, it enhances the tone of the trailer. The simplicity of the theme represents the purity of the open world that the game is known for.
The melody is also an essential aspect of the theme. It is not your typical videogame soundtrack that relies on heavy percussion and high energy. Instead, it is slow-paced and contemplative, yet it still captures the player’s attention. The chords progression is mellow and does not force the listener to feel any particular emotion. It speaks to players differently, hence why it has become so iconic.
Another standout aspect of the 2017 trailer theme is how it changes throughout the trailer. The theme subtly builds and evolves, mirroring some of the gameplay sequences featured in the trailer. The simple piano and cello gradually give way to a more powerful orchestration, creating a sense of progress and anticipation.
The final piece that makes the Breath of the Wild 2017 trailer theme noteworthy is the contrast it creates with some of the game’s more intense moments. The theme plays during the start of the trailer when the world is still unknown and peaceful, setting a tone that makes the later gameplay footage all the more excited, dangerous, and fearful. The theme brings players back to the tranquility that’s momentarily lost when they venture into the vast unknown, only to be regained later on.
The Breath of the Wild 2017 trailer theme’s simplicity, melody and arrangement are what makes it an iconic piece of videogame music. It perfectly captures the world’s purity, subtlety builds and evolves, and creates the perfect contrast with more immersive gameplay moments. Manaka Kataoka has done an excellent job, and the Breath of the Wild soundtrack is worth listening to, but if you want to understand what makes it stand out, the focus should be the trailer theme.
