This is something I've been thinking about. Obviously this is a theory and purely my opinion.
The majority thought is that the voice in the trailer and the opening gameplay is Zelda's. The two most popular reasons for it being Zelda are:
It would make it much more interesting if the voice speaking to you, beckoning you to wake up, was a mysterious woman whom you've never met. Maybe an old friend you can't remember. Strictly from a story standpoint, Zelda would be a boring choice.
So what about Zelda's Lullaby? Think about it. It only plays when looking at Hyrule Castle and the light. Let's look at the usage of Zelda's lullaby throughout the series.
Anyways, this was just a thought I had swirling in my mind. This game is changing a lot about Zelda. I would love to see it change up the story. Ganon is in it, but he's Calamity Ganon, in a form we've never seen him in. It would be refreshing to add some new characters; intriguing characters that could be used in future games. Not just Link, Zelda, and Ganon. Comment if you have any opinions!

- It makes sense and is the most likely (albeit maybe too obvious and boring).
- Zelda's Lullaby plays in the background when Link is on the first resurrection tower at the beginning of the story demo and the voice is speaking.

- "Zelda's Lullaby" is heard when Princess Zelda and Link meet for the first time in the dungeon of Hyrule Castle.
- Link is taught "Zelda's Lullaby" by Impa shortly after meeting Princess Zelda. Impa tells Link that not only was the song sung as a lullaby for young Zelda, but has also been passed down from generation to generation of the Royal Family of Hyrule and is traditionally only taught to its members or trusted messengers.
- In Majora's Mask, the song is heard in the background during the flashback scene where Link remembers Princess Zelda.
- "Zelda's Lullaby" is heard when Tetra is revealed to be Princess Zelda in the basement of Hyrule Castle in the Wind Waker.
- In Skyward sword, "Zelda's Lullaby" is heard when Zelda reveals her identity as the goddess Hylia reborn.
