Well, now's your chance to play The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword™ HD on your Nintendo Switch™ system! Note: If you emulate The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword™ all of us at Nintendo™ will write you a personalized cease and desist order
Same, I'm trying to find equivalent covers of the Ballad of the Wind Fish (LA) and the Song of Healing (MM) for my funeral. Haven't succeded yet. Any suggestions?
@@pva.w.l no, I mean covers this quality. There's a version of the wind fish ballad by this same musician, but it's simpler and not as magnificent as this one
Sometimes when I’m bored, I turn this on, pull out my flute, and harmonize with Luke (and it’s really fun!). I improvise harmonies sometimes and while doing so, I found out that the B section harmonizes well with the A section!
This deserves all the views, all the likes, and all the love :D Definitely do more Zelda covers (along with anything else you feel like playing and sharing with us! It's always a joy to hear you play anything!)
Skyward Sword was my first Zelda game ever, got it for the Wii when I was little. I won't lie, I teared up a little hearing this, remembering a time when life didn't feel nearly so serious.
I found my old flute from 18 years ago tucked away in a box a few days ago and have been looking for songs to practice. I love Skyward Sword SO much and immediately looked for this song, but your version is just so perfect, clean and emotional. That wooden flute really has such a beautiful sound! And of course, you are very talented. Thank you for this gem I will replay over and over.
Always love a good Zelda cover, and yours are some of the best around! The repertoire of instruments you are capable of playing, as well as the special ones you get on loan, is just phenomenal!
I loved this interpretation, when you brought in the guitar and drums I was like, woah! this is a slightly unexpected but very fitting color and development in the piece, loved it. Def excited if you decide to do more Zelda covers
I love this Luke! this is definitely one of my favorite covers that you've done! so serene and beautiful, and I love the way you built upon yourself with each section. and as always I would love to hear more Zelda haha
This was breathtaking!! 🥺🥺 loved your interpretation of this & I could feel your emotion coming through the screen, bravo! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 also that flute is super cool!! 🤩🤩
I’m not normally one to cry over stuff in video games and movies and the such (I’m not one of those “I’m so tough” guys, I find stuff sad but don’t really have any feeling of needing to cry), but your cover genuinely almost made me tear up. Fan-fucking-tastic job.
This is so good Luke... i love the emotion you always put into your music :) truly amazing!! My favorite thing about this song is the fact that thr main notes are Zelda's Lullaby backwards. Lol.
@@InstrumentManiac For sure. My ten and three-year old turn your inspirational Thomas music on in the play room when we 'Build the Island of Sodor'. It changes building track into an epic! The entire family was humming Diesel's theme in the car yesterday. We love your music!
Hello! This cover is an absolute blessing! As an actual worshiper of Goddess Hylia, may I use this cover sometimes if I get around to making the podcast I’m planning? I saw the instructions for using it in a video but this is slightly different so I wanted to ask. Thanks!
Very beautiful take on the Ballad of Goddess. The harp and flute sound lovely together and you executed this track beautifully. You should be proud of your talent and the way you created this lovely music. =) Keep it up the amazing work and keep enjoying your music.^^/
InstrumentManiac your are a god of Instruments also i watched a entire The Great discovery and Engine roll call after engine roll call Thomas You'r the leader
This is a lovely arrangement of this theme! You've done splendidly on giving such an emphasis on the flute, especially with how well you play it (that goes for everything!) Sadly I've never heard the official OST version of this theme, so I may not be able to enjoy it fully yet. Regardless, I can easily imagine Link exploring a cool and desolate landscape. If you don't mind me mentioning this, you could do Wind Waker themes with ease! Very well done!
Zelda covers are my favorites! If you want a suggestion I think Twilight Princess has some very nice music, the Hyrule field would be an interesting cover for a multi instrumentalist
Been adoring your Thomas themes recently, but one of my absolute favourite things is Zelda so this is a joy to see!! Lovely stuff as ever, and of one of my favourite pieces of music from the series. Think you'd ever do a cheeky Spirit Tracks cover? Throw in a touch of Thomas haha. Keep up the brilliant work man
Ahh thank you for listening! Actually I did a spirit tracks cover not too long ago ^_^ th-cam.com/video/8698oet-9Po/w-d-xo.html&ab_channel=InstrumentManiac
Hello Luke, lovely theme and the period flute is as lovely as you say. Perfect. I have a technical/musical question this time: why the guitar? In my mind guitar and harp kind of produce the same sort of sound, be it with a different vibe, the harp being more orchestral and ambient and the guitar being more of a solo instrument. But the timbre is similar, so much so that i couldn't distinguish them in the piece and that got me curious about your using both instead of simply doubling the harp as you do with the flute.
Thanks Idraote! I have to say I feel a little differently ^_^. To me the harp and acoustic guitar bring much different sounds. Harp is a more rounded mid-range sound whereas steel string is a sharp more piercing high sound. I like layering the two because they sound similar yet they bring a slightly different vibe to the lines :) Search "wire strung harp" and you might get a better idea of what i mean!
This is a very beautiful cover. I found myself singing along to it. I have an idea for another cover...Have you heard of the movie Song of the Sea? I’d like to hear you do something from there. I’d also like to hear you do something from twilight princess (malo mart and queen rutela’s theme), ocarina of time (spirit temple, sheik’s theme, and water temple), wind waker (makar’s theme and medli’s theme), paper Mario (shooting star summit, toad town, peach’s theme, twink’s theme, shy guys toy box, and lava lava island), Okami, and super Mario 64 (main menu, peach’s letter, peach’s castle, piranha plant lullaby) sometime.
I've been playing the flute since 2006 and I just can't wrap my fingers around keyless/keys with holes. I'd like to blame my small fingers but I'm sure it's something that is actually my fault 😅

Hauntingly beautiful!
Wow, thank you!
Not buitiful
Soooooooooooooooooooooooooo biutiful
Oh my gosh, YES! This ballad is THE defining melody of Skyward Sword, and you just blew it out of the stratosphere!
Never played Skyward Sword but wow this song is beautiful and your interpretation was absolutely stunning 🔥

@@altermike3197 or if you had a wii or wii u system you could use that!!
He also played the Zelda theme if you play this backwards
@@Dekujungeno it's zeldas lullaby backwards
One of the best covers of this song I've ever heard. I like how you bring in your own style as a "solo"
Thanks Splicher!
If this specific cover is not played at my funeral then I'm not dying
Same, I'm trying to find equivalent covers of the Ballad of the Wind Fish (LA) and the Song of Healing (MM) for my funeral. Haven't succeded yet. Any suggestions?
@@tomasducci3795 you mean covers played on flute?
@@pva.w.l no, I mean covers this quality. There's a version of the wind fish ballad by this same musician, but it's simpler and not as magnificent as this one
Now listen to this backwards and you will hear Zelda's Lullaby
Sometimes when I’m bored, I turn this on, pull out my flute, and harmonize with Luke (and it’s really fun!). I improvise harmonies sometimes and while doing so, I found out that the B section harmonizes well with the A section!
I’m so glad to see the simple system flute featured!
Wish they were more common now-a-days!
Been loving the latest of all your music making endeavors!
Same to you as well!
This deserves all the views, all the likes, and all the love :D Definitely do more Zelda covers (along with anything else you feel like playing and sharing with us! It's always a joy to hear you play anything!)
Thanks, will do!
Very talented. I learned to play flute. If i would be half as good...Thumbs up.
You are a genius 😮@InstrumentManiac
Hands down the best performance of this song
Song of goddess
He look so happy with the flute 😆 so nice!
Very!
This now going into my DnD campaign, thank you

Omggg multi-instrument legend thank u!!

This is beautiful. It did send shivers all over my body when i heard it.
Hearing this, I would absolutely love to hear you cover the Skyrim soundtrack. This song especially reminds me of A Chance Meeting.
I love this Luke! this is definitely one of my favorite covers that you've done! so serene and beautiful, and I love the way you built upon yourself with each section. and as always I would love to hear more Zelda haha
Thank you so much!

SO GOOD!!! Would love to try such a flute
YOU ARE AWESOME! ❤❤❤

Delicated and smooth tune😊. Your lips are smiling, but your eyes are sad. Maybe a deeply felt ballad (I hope.). 🐋 I stay still warm! 🙂
😊 thank you! The best kind of music makes you feel both :)

This is a nice cover. Did you know the theme backwards are the zelda theme?
It's a shame I haven't played this game yet.
Ikr!! Can't wait for the HD release in July
For a videogame request, could you try 'Battle Against a True Hero' from Undertale please?
I've been playing the flute since 2006 and I just can't wrap my fingers around keyless/keys with holes. I'd like to blame my small fingers but I'm sure it's something that is actually my fault 😅
Flute?🤠
