Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time - Ganondorf Battle GUITAR & BASS TAB
Composed by Koji Kondo
Tabbed by Auriplane ([email protected])
This song is notated kind of funny, 'cause Guitar Pro isn't so good for sheet music. Anyway,
the first measure is in 4/4 time, and the rest of the song is in 23/16.
Yes, that's right, 23/16. You can divide it up like this:
1 2 3 1 2 3 1 2 3 1 2 3 4 (13/16)
1 2 3 1 2 3 1 2 3 4 (10/16)
Basically, the beat is a dotted eighth, and there are 7 beats per measure, but the 4th and 7th
beats are slightly longer, being a full quarter note. So, the accents fall like this:
23/16 time

Once you get this rhythm, it's not too hard. However, there is one part which is syncopated in
a different way. The chords on the first guitar, starting in measure 6, have the following
rhythm:
17/16 time

--------------------------------------|
------------------:-------------------|
------------------:-------------------|
------------------:-------------------|
------------------:-------------------|
--------------------------------------|
That is, 8 sixteenths, followed by 9 sixteenths, alternating. This rhythm is syncopated against
the 23/16 rhythm which continues on the other parts.

The Gods foretold the creation of this tab, but even the murals painted by their words failed to prepare me for the beauty of it.

This is pretty epic, auri!

Wow. I didn't think it was possible to do a good tab for this song with its rhythm and all, but you did it. Congladuration.

Wonderful...
