For instrumentation, each version uses the same instruments, though for games not in the HD remakes, some voices are covered through electronic means- such as synthesizer. In general, the instrumentation includes: strings, orchestral bells, piano, harp, and chorus.

There are several references to previous themes, primarily [[Dive into the Heart -Destati-|"Dive into the Heart -Destati-"]] and [[Dearly Beloved|"Dearly Beloved"]]. Ironically, both are themes heard at the beginning of the game whereas this is heard at the end of it. For the "Destati" theme, this is heard in the vocal part and violin. Both treble and bass clef voices repeat the word "Destati" alongside choir-ahhs as one would hear in the original "Destati" theme. For "Dearly Beloved," the rhythm is slightly different- now rhythmically faster and more choppy. The orchestral bell part occasionally interrupts with this motif. The piece has a very subjective tone. There is a haunting beauty to the piece, yet an overlapping sadness, knowing and seeing a world frozen in the middle of destruction due to the [[Heartless]] invasion. Overall, the piece has a desolate feeling to it.
"End of the World" contains references to "[[Dive into the Heart -Destati-]]" and "[[Dearly Beloved]]". Both of these tracks appeared at the beginning of the game, being repurposed here for a more sinister endgame track. For the "Destati" theme, this is heard in the vocal part and violin. Both treble and bass clef voices repeat the word "Destati" alongside choir-ahhs as one would hear in the original "Destati" theme. For "Dearly Beloved", the rhythm is slightly different now faster and more choppy – and the orchestral bell part occasionally interrupts with this motif. The piece has a very subjective tone.
