The actual title of this is “The Final Trial: The Champions’ Ballad,” but the game’s title is long enough and I didn’t want to hurt anyone’s attention span.
This is a long and ominous-sounding one. It’s a leitmotif: it repeats the previous—I assume “previous,” because this one is titled “final”—trial tracks in the game, and this particular track is the same repeated phrase with a very gradual crescendo, different instruments entering and leaving the fray, etc. The previous trial tracks aren’t as built up like this one is, either, so this “final” trial is likely a big burrito to bite through.
I don’t know much about this game, except for Dunkey’s compilation, and admittedly it looks pretty fun and creative.

It’s okay. There were moments where I heard something indistinguishable for the pseudo-recorder you could get with some chip music. Otherwise, it did sound exactly like background music, not really trying to communicate much of an image.
It’s rather different than a lot of music you’d hear in the franchise. There are some orchestral gems in other Zelda games I’ll post in the future.
