The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword was the first game in the series to receive a full orchestral score, but Nintendo’s Symphony of the Goddesses concert series recounts the storylines of four previous games: Ocarina of Time, The Wind Waker, Twilight Princess and A Link to the Past.

In addition to the concerts, the Nintendo World store in New York City’s Rockerfeller Plaza is hosting a series of events on Friday September 14th from 6:00 PM to 9:00 PM (Eastern Time). Fans will be able to take part in an ocarina workshop and have their photo taken with Link cosplay model Li Kovacs. The first people through the door will also receive a free goodie bag full of Symphony of the Goddesses merchandise, so get their early!
