Lost Forest Piano

[Candi Ruman]

Doesanyone know the notes to any ocarina songs or just the notes to the tune that plays in the lost woods? Not on a staff, like for example just ABCDEFG. I think it would be cool to play them on my trumpet, or on my piano.

I only know the notes to the short versions (the little in-game ones you play on the ocarina). It'll at least get you started if you're good at playing by ear. I used to play trumpet, so I'll type them as they'd be on a typical trumpet scale.

Actually, there's a really nice website:

They sell a piano book of Zelda songs.. I think there's also a ocarina songbook with the songs for ocarina.

Just keep in mind that you need to transpose the music if you're playing with multiple instruments!

could you be so kind and share the Zelda piano sheets you've got there? I've just started to play games songs on the piano and would like to learn how to play the zelda songs

if you could just e-mail them to me at jay_...@hotmail.com I would be very greatful

i translated "Saria's Song" from a song book i got with my ocarina. the notes are a little off toward the end (the ocarina doesn't have a high enough range to get the not so the person compensated for it by writing 3 different notes), also i made this a while back and i didnt really grasp the concept of half and whole notes in writing at that time so your on your own with that:

the measure is 4/4

"Lost in the Woods" is a song written by Kristen Anderson-Lopez and Robert Lopez for Disney's animated film Frozen II (2019), the sequel to the 2013 animated film. It was recorded by American actor and singer Jonathan Groff, who voices the character Kristoff, and produced by its songwriters with Dave Metzger and Tom MacDougall. The song was released by Walt Disney Records on November 15, 2019, as part of the film's soundtrack album. "Lost in the Woods" is a soft rock and glam rock ballad about relationship insecurities. Featuring piano keyboards and distorted electric guitars prominently throughout, the song's production and instrumentation distinguish it from the film's other musical numbers.

Due to Kristoff's non-musical personality, Groff hardly sings in the first Frozen film despite his musical theatre experience, which disappointed fans and critics. Anderson-Lopez and Lopez decided Kristoff's first proper song should depict him learning how to express his emotions for the first time, specifically how he feels about his girlfriend Anna, to whom he has been struggling to propose. "Lost in the Woods" ultimately replaced a duet that had been written for Kristoff and Anna. The songwriters were heavily inspired by rock songs and bands from the 1980s, specifically power ballads performed by male singers who were unafraid to express their innermost feelings through song, and cited musicians Bryan Adams and Jon Bon Jovi as inspirations. Groff provided all of the song's background vocals himself, recording at least 18 different vocal tracks. Delivered in a tongue-in-cheek manner, "Lost in the Woods" is both a sincere expression of Kristoff's feelings and parody of 1980s music; the song's accompanying musical sequence in the film was animated to resemble music videos from the same time period.

Most film and music critics have reviewed the song positively, praising its 1980s-inspired production, humor, and Groff's performance, while declaring it a standout among Frozen II's songs. Several reviewers commented on the song's appeal to older Frozen fans. American rock band Weezer recorded a cover of the song for the film's end credits, the release of which was accompanied by a music video starring actress Kristen Bell, who voices Anna, as lead singer Rivers Cuomo's love interest.

American actor and singer Jonathan Groff voices the character Kristoff, a reclusive mountaineer and ice harvester,[1][2] in the Frozen films.[3][4] Despite being an accomplished Broadway performer in his own right with extensive musical theatre experience,[5] Groff barely sings in the first film, apart from his character's brief solo "Reindeer(s) Are Better Than People".[6][7] Several critics and fans complained about the actor's lack of musical performances in Frozen,[8][9] widely criticizing the film for failing to utilize his talents properly.[10] Frozen songwriters Kristen Anderson-Lopez and Robert Lopez admitted they will always be ashamed of not writing a proper song for Groff or his character,[7] acknowledging it as a missed opportunity.[11]

Screen Rant's Kay McGuire reported that Disney has attributed Kristoff's lack of a song in Frozen to his characterization, explaining that a complete musical number would have been inappropriate for the character's personality and role in the film since, for the most part, he is "not the kind of character to break into song".[12] Although the songwriters, filmmakers and cast agreed that Groff does not sing nearly enough in the first film,[13][14] the actor admitted that his fans were more disappointed by the oversight than he was.[7] According to Vanity Fair's Joanna Robinson, both the songwriters and Groff struggled to understand how his character could sing an entire song in the sequel without merely "shoehorn[ing] in a song" with little plot relevance.[7]

Ultimately, the songwriters decided Kristoff's song should revolve around an emotionally repressed man finally being able to express his feelings for the first time in the form of a 1980s power ballad,[13] resulting in a funny yet emotional moment for the character's development.[15] The song was inspired by Kristoff's tendency to convey his innermost thoughts via Sven, his pet reindeer, an unusual personality trait first established in Frozen that ultimately becomes "Kristoff's way of expressing his deep, deep emotional feelings", according to Groff.[9] McGuire theorized that, by Frozen II, Kristoff is much more comfortable with his emotions, which in turn legitimizes the character having a musical number.[12]

"Lost in the Woods" was written by Anderson-Lopez and Lopez,[16][17] who researched several classic rock bands as inspiration for the song.[18] Heavily inspired by the songwriters' love for 1980s music,[19] Anderson-Lopez described the song as an "homage to a time when men could express their feelings in a big, powerful way", and were particularly inspired by singers Bryan Adams and Jon Bon Jovi.[8] The songwriters believe this emotional style of singing has "decreased in popularity" since the 1980s, and hoped "Lost in the Woods" would help revive it.[8] Since they were both teenagers during the 1980s, the songwriters incorporated "every emo emotion we ever had" during their adolescence into the song's lyrics.[20] "Lost in the Woods" was primarily written to convey Kristoff, a "buttoned-up mountain man", truly voicing his innermost feelings for the first time,[21] while expanding upon the idea that he longs for a committed relationship with Anna.[20] "Lost in the Woods" replaced an earlier song entitled "Get This Right",[7] which had originally been intended as a comedic duet between the couple.[22] Having never written a song like "Lost in the Woods" before, the songwriting duo found the process both risky and thrilling.[7]

Upon hearing "Lost in the Woods" for the first time, Groff was surprised to learn Disney was willing to explore "such a left turn" for his character musically, and feared the song would be cut from the final film due to its jarring nature.[9] Groff and the songwriters discussed the need to "[toe] the line between emotion and camp" in order to deliver a funny yet sincere performance, explaining that, despite appearing funny to modern audiences, similar songs from the 1980s are "not making a joke ... it was a more innocent time. And there was a purity to it that we sort of laugh at now, but that purity is also actually what the character is feeling".[9] Anderson-Lopez agreed that they had decided to base the song on 1980s music so they could "have fun" while maintaining a level of sincerity.[21]

To ensure Groff was in an appropriate mood to record "Lost in the Woods" on the day of the recording, the team watched several YouTube videos of balladeers from the 1980s in preparation.[7] Groff also drew inspiration from karaoke, specifically recalling memories of drunken men singing songs by the bands Journey and Queen.[7] Groff provided all of the track's background vocals himself, recording at least 18 different vocal tracks for Kristoff, Sven and several reindeer characters.[9][23][24] Groff's background vocals were intentionally mixed to sound as though each character was singing from a slightly different location.[11] Anderson-Lopez described the background vocals as a hybrid between the bands Queen and Chicago,[7] which were also inspired by their background as a cappella singers.[15]

Lopez and Anderson-Lopez produced the track with Dave Metzger and Tom MacDougall.[25][26] Disney revealed the full track list for the Frozen II soundtrack on September 30, 2019, in which both the film and end credit versions of "Lost in the Woods" are mentioned.[27][28] "Lost in the Woods" was released along with the film's soundtrack on November 15, 2019,[7] with the deluxe version including an instrumental rendition of the track.[17] The process of writing and recording the song is documented in the documentary series Into the Unknown: Making Frozen II, serving as the main focus of its second episode "Back to the Drawing Board".[18][29][30]

The songwriters encouraged Frozen II's animators to "take this to an '80s video kind of place', which they had deliberately written on the song's lyric sheet.[7] Like the song itself, its animated sequence is inspired by rock ballads from the 1980s, which directors Chris Buck and Jennifer Lee researched diligently to ensure their visuals complimented the songwriters' vision.[5] The entire musical sequence was storyboarded by story artist Dan Abraham,[5] while the idea of a reindeer chorus was suggested by various animators.[7] At times, the directors felt Abraham's ideas for Kristoff's performance were too "extreme", which at some points had depicted the character cartwheeling and ripping his shirt off, thus Buck and Lee advised the animator to keep Kristoff's antics more grounded.[5] Kristoff's supervising animator Justin Sklar found the scene particularly difficult to animate, admitting that animators instinctively want to create "the craziest" and most ridiculous version of any project they are assigned to, which does not always benefit the sequence.[31] Sklar initially struggled to balance the scene's humor with Kristoff's "sincere performance", while at the same time granting the audience permission to laugh at how he expresses himself.[31][32] According to Sklar, the final version of "Lost in the Woods" is significantly "less crazy" than earlier iterations, which evolved considerably throughout the development process.[33] Of the scenes he has animated for Frozen II, Sklar considers "Lost in the Woods" to be his favorite.[33] Animating and emoting dozens of reindeer also proved challenging for Sven's supervising animator Michael Woodside, since the animals had never spoken for themselves before "Lost in the Woods".[11]
