Sirens' Musical Instruments
These musical instruments were once used by the band of Sirens as they sang to lure sailors to their doom. Now it is rumored that they lie in the depths of the dungeons, guarded by powerful monsters. If you obtain all of these instruments you will be able to solve the riddle of the Wind Fish.

The whole set contains eight Instruments. Each of the eight Instruments of the Sirens can be found at the end of a Dungeon after defeating its respective Boss. When combined, they allow Link to awaken the Wind Fish.
