"Peach's Castle,"[1] also known as "Inside the Castle Walls,"[2][3] is a musical theme composed by Koji Kondo for Super Mario 64, where it plays in the Mushroom Castle. In subsequent games and other works in the Super Mario franchise, this theme is often used as a leitmotif for Princess Peach and her castle.
"Peach's Castle" is played by a string ensemble. In the A section, all of the parts harmonize the melody's rhythm, aside from pizzicato runs, contrasting the melody with brief silences. This leads into a contrapuntal legato B section.
