This article is about the theme music for Haldera Volcano. For the Battle Stage, see Haldera Volcano.

Haldera Volcano is the name of a musical piece which first appeared in Kirby's Return to Dream Land in the first stage of Dangerous Dinner.

Composition

This theme is notable in its relatively short but fast-paced melody. It can either be counted as standard 4/4 or a faster 6/8. It features a largely traditional orchestral instrumentation, with percussion, strings, brass, and most notably a xylophone. The percussion forms a solid rolling baseline for the brass and strings to build a melody on top of, creating an air of urgency to the track that fits the fast-paced nature of the stages it features in.
