Kondo originally wanted to use Maurice Ravel's Bolero as the title music, but had to change it when it was revealed that the copyright of the song had not yet expired, so Kondo quickly wrote a new theme. To create the music for the game, Kondo most likely originally wrote it on piano, and then converted it to his NES sound driver by entering the music in 6502 assembly macros. Titles come from the Famicom 20th Anniversary - Original Sound Tracks, Vol.1 album, but some of the shorter jingles were never officially released. The title music is especially memorable, and some of the other songs will be popular with anyone one who has played the game. The Legend of Zelda was early in the NES market, so it isn't expected to be awesome, but there are still several iconic tunes.
