From a series that has given us masterpieces, many of which can be found in the same game, such as:

Ocarina of Time:

Majora's Mask:


Wind Waker:

 

Hateno Villege Day, while good, can't touch the original source.

Twilight Princess:

Skyward Sword:

So many classics can be found in just one game. There are many other great pieces in each of those games, but for now, I stuck with my absolute favorites.

Breath of the Wild in comparison, while it certainly has memorable and breathtaking pieces of its own. The quantity does not come even remotely close to that of the games that precede it.
And from the Legend of Zelda franchise, we aren't necessarily expecting better, because like I said, Breath of the Wild has incredible pieces of its own, but we expected more. Much more.
Grass, birds, trees, and wind is nice, and it fits this game perfectly, but I'd rather hear Lorule's theme, or the Forest Temple from Ocarina of Time (even though that temple sucks major Dongs), or the orchestral piece that plays while you're flying through Skyloft.

THAT'S what everyone means when they say Breath of the Wild's soundtrack is lackluster. Because compared to there others, it certainly is.
