Song of Passing

from Zeldapedia, the Legend of Zelda wiki

Song of Passing
First appearance The Wind Waker (2003)
Learned Windfall Island (Tott)
Power(s) Change day to night and vice versa

The "Song of Passing" is a song Link conducts in The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker with his baton. He learns it next to a monument on Windfall Island, where the dancing Tott attempts to change night to day for weeks on end. When Link reveals his Wind Waker to Tott, he suddenly changes his fraying from side to side motion to a dance which seems to illustrate directions for playing the "Song of Passing." Once Link mimics Tott's movements, he acquires the new song, which gives Link the power to turn night to day (and vice versa) anytime he wishes.

The "Song of Passing" is nearly identical to Ocarina of Time's "Sun's Song," the only difference being the instrumental medium they are played on.

The actual pitches of the notes translate as follows: A, F, D. These notes are the same as the "Sun's Song," simply not repeated.
