'''Motzand''' is a character in ''[[Banjo-Kazooie]]''.
'''Motzand''' is a large, ghostly hand who plays a giant {{wp|pipe organ}} in [[the Haunted Church]] of [[Mad Monster Mansion]]. Unlike other ghosts, Motzand is friendly and, like [[Gruntilda]], only speaks in rhymes. His name is a portmanteau of a famous composer, {{wp|Mozart}}, and "hand."

===''Banjo-kazooie''===
 
In ''[[Banjo-Kazooie]]'', when Banjo and Kazooie enter the church of Mad Monster Mansion and climb onto the organ's music stand, Motzand challenges them to copy the notes of two tunes that he plays on the pipe organ. Banjo and Kazooie can hit the keys by using [[Beak Buster]] on each of them. At first, Motzand plays a short tune consisting of a few notes. After the duo copy the first tune, Motzand plays a longer tune that includes more notes. Once Banjo and Kazooie have copied both tunes, Motzand congratulates them and rewards them with a [[Jiggy]]. Motzand then floats upward and fades away.
