<p>One of my favorite animes used to be <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kaiketsu_Zorro" rel="nofollow">Kaiketsu Zorro</a>, and I especially loved <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jrUFkrTbQ0A" rel="nofollow">the opening music</a> of the Portuguese version of the cartoon.</p>

<p>My question is, is the music custom made for the anime series, or does it exist outside the anime?<br>
If it's an actual piece, what is its name/who is it by?</p>

One of my favorite animes used to be [Kaiketsu Zorro](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kaiketsu_Zorro), and I especially loved [the opening music](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jrUFkrTbQ0A) of the Portuguese version of the cartoon.

My question is, is the music custom made for the anime series, or does it exist outside the anime?  
If it's an actual piece, what is its name/who is it by?

It looks like the OP of the Portuguese dub of Kaiketsu Zorro is the instrumental (i.e. no lyrics) version of the [original Japanese OP](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4yc6RPXiftM).

The original Japanese OP was presumably made specifically for the series, seeing as it is titled "ZORRO" (cf. [the ANN entry for Kaiketsu Zorro](http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/encyclopedia/anime.php?id=1744)).
