===Track 01: The Traveling Crow Goes===
"The Traveling Crow Goes"{{UT}} {{JA|旅ガラスは行く|}} plays during the title screen cutscene.


Composition: traditional Japanese instrumentation (presumably [[wikipedia:hyōshigi|hyōshigi]], [[wikipedia:koto (instrument)|koto]], [[wikipedia:shakuhachi|shakuhachi]]). It opens with a [koto] solo intro: a rising phrase within A minor [[wikipedia:pentatonic scale|pentatonic scale]], then has a [hyōshigi] intermission and repeats slower. The following D minor main phrase played by the [shakuhachi]: D-F-E-A, with a supporting [second sakuhachi]. The main phrase plays in several variations, modulating and leading back to D minor's dominant. During the resolution, the music slows down. Doesn't loop.

Track 01: The Traveling Crow Goes

"The Traveling Crow Goes"(UT) - This is an unofficial translation. (Japanese: 旅ガラスは行く) plays during the title screen cutscene.

Composition: traditional Japanese instrumentation (presumably hyōshigi, koto, shakuhachi).

The following D minor main phrase played by the [shakuhachi]: D-F-E-A, with a supporting [second sakuhachi]. The main phrase plays in several variations, modulating and leading back to D minor's dominant. During the resolution, the music slows down. Doesn't loop.
