About the Great Fairy Fountain theme#
The Great Fairy’s Fountain theme first appeared in A Link to the Past in 1991 and has drifted through nearly every Zelda game since, playing whenever Link steps into one of the hidden fairy springs. Koji Kondo built it as a calm, harp-like figure, a moment of rest between the fighting.
The falling, arpeggio-style shape lies well under the fingers on a six-hole ocarina, moving mostly by small steps from a low D up to a high D. Watch for the single B flat, the one note that steps outside the plain scale.
