Whether you’ve played Ocarina of Time on Switch 2, watched the trailers, or have simply been in the ether of its release, you almost certainly have an ocarina tune or two stuck in your head right now. For those who want to turn their earworm into a lesson, Nintendo has shared the sheet music for each of Link’s in-game songs, so you can stop whistling Zelda’s Lullaby and learn how to play it instead.
Nintendo previously announced that it would share musical instructions through the Zelda Notes app, so you can discover how to play the songs on any real-world ocarinas you may have accumulated over the years. But look, they’re all also available on the game’s Japanese website, so you don’t have to worry about unlocking them in-game before you start learning!
Besides the sheet music, the website also includes the specific ocarina finger placement to follow on the titular instrument.
Oh yeah, and just in case these 12 tracks aren’t already ingrained in your heads, the site (and app) also offers a handy “Play” button, so you can listen to what each of them is like. supposed to ring before trying your luck yourself.
Of course, you might be waiting to learn any of these until you have one of the official attach ocarinas to your hands. Pre-orders for the electric model of HORI went live in September, and we’re now seeing orders slowly trickle in for the playable version at select regional Nintendo stores.
