“The Changeling Castle“ BGM from the episode “To Where and Back Again, pt 2” of "My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic” (S06E26).


--Overall Comments--

Well, it’s here: the season 6 finale!  I can’t believe we’ve already arrived at it; it seemed like the season just began.  And boy, do they pull out all the stops for this one!  Queen Chrysalis and the Changelings are back, and have replaced the Mane 6 and other Equestria leadership.  It’s up to Starlight Glimmer, and her unlikely set of heroes, to save all of Equestria!

The season ends without a song, leaving its total at 12; quite a bit less than previous ones!  However, you have to take into account that since season 4 we’ve had more or less 2 “musical” episodes each season, a main one, and a secondary one which had just as many tracks.  We only had the one this season.  I’m sure Daniel Ingram and co. were busy working on the movie as well!

However, the season more than made up with it in the score department.  William Anderson and Kelly Davidson’s score totaled to a record 310 tracks which I was able to extract this season!  And the finale definitely helped it reach that milestone.

“To Where and Back Again” was filled to the brim with score and returning musical cues.  We hear everything from the “Magic of Friendship” motif, to Starlight’s, to Trixie’s, to Discord’s, to the Changelings’… you get the idea.  Plus, numerous other themes from the season make their return, leading up to a nice bookend with the final track of the finale being the final track of the premiere.  But don’t fret: there’s plenty of amazing new score in here as well!  The entire final 7 minutes of the finale has some of the best score, I think, from the entire series.

Without wasting any more time, let’s dive in!


--Track Specific Comments--

After some discussion, the group of would-be heroes make their way into and through the Changeling castle.

The episode begins with a shot of the castle, accompanied by some Changeling score.  Discord’s mischievous motif accompanies him bickering with Trixie, before he tries to make his heroic exit on a flying pig.  A short alternate take of Starlight’s reformed motif is heard as she talks next.

The group then enters the Changeling castle, and is greeted with some very creepy score in the same style as the Changeling’s other cues, which also mixes in some nice xylophone and choir.

This also happens to be score track #300 for the season — the first time we’ve hit that mark!
