I could talk about this moment, but there's actually a bit of unused content I want to talk about in regards to this scene.
The song that plays here is a slowed down By Your Side. A song universally identifiable as Mari's theme. But there's an unused ambience track that I think might have played here instead at one point. The cemetery has a unique ambience track, but there's another version that has Mari's part of Duet playing in it. The one you hear on the title screen and all over the game.

I think they were originally going to have that fade in over the normal ambience track, but at some point someone decided to swap it out with By Your Side.
The specific Duet leitmotif you might realize has some connection to Mari with how often you hear it, and her spirit plays it on the piano the previous night. But it's not really until you hear Final Duet that you realize the significance of it. Meanwhile, By Your Side has always played for Mari. You hear it all over Headspace, and in Dear Little Brother. Even earlier it was playing when you put the pictures of Mari back into the Photo Album. It's immediately identifiable as Mari's theme. I think that's why they swapped it out. By Your Side would be more emotionally impactful than a leitmotif players might simply identify as the title screen music.
But that's just a theory.
