This article is about the theme music for Mallow Castle. For the stage itself, see Mallow Castle.

Mallow Castle (also known as Marshmallow Castle[1]) is a theme from Kirby Super Star that plays exclusively in the stage of the same name, and is one of the only themes in the Dyna Blade game to do so. Aside from appearing again in Kirby Super Star Ultra, it has not been remixed or reappeared in any other game since.

Composition

Kirby and Sir Kibble take a stroll in Mallow Castle's courtyard.

Mallow Castle is one of the slower stage themes in Kirby Super Star and has a more relaxed feel to it with a deep bass. It appears to be in the key of C minor at first, but it changes to E flat major in the second portion. The lead part of the first section of this song is played with a horn-like instrument of some sort. After it repeats the first portion (albeit a bit quieter), it introduces the second part with some bell-like chimes.

Other appearances

This theme accompanies the Kirby: Copy Ability Poll Nintendo 3DS Theme. It can also be heard in the Kirby Ultra Super Deluxe Soundtrack.
