"Snow Land", named "Theme from Snow Land" in the British English version, is a theme from Kirby's Epic Yarn and Kirby's Extra Epic Yarn that plays in the level with the same name. This track can be unlocked by collecting it in Frigid Fjords. It was composed by Tomoya Tomita.[1]

Composition[edit]

An overview of the yarn winter wonderland.

"Snow Land" is a serene piece in C major and 3/4. It begins with a slow descending reverb-heavy intro played by a piano transitioning to harp that sets the key. During the main part, the harp continues to provide harmonic support together with the sound of a sleigh bell's jingles. The melody consists of two descending thirds resolving to mediant and tonic, played by a piano with the occasional keyboard percussion, as well as a faint plucked string tremolo. This melody plays twice. Building upon the original intonations, the second section's more lyrical melody tends to rise and features wider intervals and accidentals that make the harmonies more diverse. After a first quiet time, it is played again by the strings. In conclusion, a final resolving variation of the first motif plays several times, returning to the tranquility of the first section, and the track loops.
