Master Sword (MIDI ART) / Zelda Baroque Medley

A MIDI ART of Zelda, after Haendel's Candles (https://youtu.be/mn_3FZDvT_c). Share if you like! ^.^
[Please read the answers below before asking a question again ^o^♪]

As Zelda is one of my favorite video game series, I composed this medley with some famous Zelda melodies to make it look like an "approximate Master Sword"! x)
(Weeeell, let's say the irregularities are actually the magical energy beam getting ready. Totally done on purpose. ;p)
Melodies:
- [00:08] Zelda's Lullaby
- [00:17] Fairy Fountain
- [00:52] Overworld Theme
- [01:44] Kakariko Village
1) What software do I use?
I use FL studio. A great software! (If you want a free alternative, LMMS can be good too.) About instruments, I did my own mix with different VST instruments (harpsichords, draw organs, church organs) and some audio effects.
2) How to get the MIDI file?
If you want to get the MIDI file or the MP3 file, feel free to ask me by message on my facebook page or by e-mail. If you want to use it, please respect the Creative Commons Attribution license - either by quoting my name, or by linking to my YouTube video. ^.^ Enjoy!
3) How long did it take?
It took me about 2 weeks (on my free time).
4) Did I just "draw the outline of the sword"? {Will the defendant please rise?} x)
Well, nope... First I had the idea to create a baroque medley of some Zelda melodies to make them look like the Master Sword ; then I arranged them and counterpointed them with baroque techniques, while thinking about the final rendering. I tried to follow the shape I had in mind. I selected melodies that sounded as I wanted for each part of the sword (musical/visual textures), while I had to respect a range not for them to totally come out of the shape. I understand the point about the outlines, and just rendering "an approximate shape" was not the biggest challenge indeed... (Almost everyone noticed that.) But any song could not fit actually, and I had to respect harmonics (for the upper and lower outlines that had to match all the notes played at the same time while being themselves a slower musical line).
The challenge was more in the transitions and the consistency. About the different textures, they appear with counterpoint colors, rhythms and lengths of notes. So everything was not so easy, although the difficulties were not necessarily where they seemed to be first.

This video is the best compromise I found to get a baroque medley of Zelda, pleasing to hear, and shaped as a kind of sword. ;p
* Appreciate things for what they are, not for what you expect them to be. * slm

And finally, about "cheating":
- I use a mix of harpsichords and organs as one instrument, so a short note or a long note is always heard on all its length.
- MIDI art has no proper definition. Thus, something artistic using MIDI notation is MIDI art. So I guess this is too. ;p
- All the notes are played at the same volume.
- WYSIWYG.
5) 4chan friends: "newfags can't triforce"?
Bleeeh!

6) More?
If you enjoy organs and harpsichords, here are some longer compositions:
