Composition[edit]

"Hero's Fanfare" is three minutes and ten seconds long in Kingdom Hearts III.

The piece combines an original melody with many elements of "Go for It!", the battle theme of Olympus Coliseum. The track also shares certain elements with "Results and Rewards", though this may be coincidental instead of intentional.
