World of Soundtracks

In this second part of a two-part episode, we look at how Patrick Doyle, Nicholas Hopper and Alexandre Desplat pick up the mantle from John Williams to continue the sounds and world of Harry Potter in films 4-8. From folk tunes, to new and unusual instruments, to new places such as the Ministry of Magic, as well as returning ideas from dragons to flying to magic in Hogwarts. Each composer has their own unique sound while still staying within the late romantic orchestral sound with a few quirky moments thrown in while the sounds of magic are continued in choir and celeste.Host: Ruth MudgeMusic included in podcast:"The Quidditch World Cup" - Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack), music by Patrick Doyle, 2005"Foreign Visitors Arrive" - Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack), music by Patrick Doyle, 2005"The Goblet of Fire" - Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack), music by Patrick Doyle, 2005"Golden Egg" - Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack), music by Patrick Doyle, 2005"Hogwarts' March" - Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack), music by Patrick Doyle, 2005"Harry Sees Dragons" - Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack), music by Patrick Doyle, 2005"Underwater Secrets" - Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack), music by Patrick Doyle, 2005"The Black Lake" - Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack), music by Patrick Doyle, 2005"Der Zigeunerbaron: Schatz-Walzer (Treasure Waltz), Op. 418" - Strauss II: Most Famous Waltzes, performed by Ondrej Lenard & Strauss Festival Orchestra, music by Johann Strauss, Jnr., 1988."Potter Waltz" - Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack), music by Patrick Doyle, 2005"Dementors in the Underpass" - Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack), music by Nicholas Hooper, 2007"The Hall of Prophecies" - Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack), music by Nicholas Hooper, 2007"The Ministry of Magic" - Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack), music by Nicholas Hooper, 2007"Short Ride on a Fast Machine" - Adams: Short Ride on a Fast Machine, Grand Pianola Music, performed by Stephen Mosko & Netherlands Winds Ensemble, music by John Coolidge Adams, 1995"The Room of Requirements" - Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack), music by Nicholas Hooper, 2007"Fireworks" - Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack), music by Nicholas Hooper, 2007"A Journey to Hogwarts" - Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack), music by Nicholas Hooper, 2007"Flight of the Order of the Phoenix" - Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack), music by Nicholas Hooper, 2007"The Sirius Deception" - Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack), music by Nicholas Hooper, 2007"Ron's Victory" - Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack), music by Nicholas Hooper, 2009"The Book" - Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack), music by Nicholas Hooper, 2009"The Slug Party" - Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack), music by Nicholas Hooper, 2009"Farewell Aragog" - Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack), music by Nicholas Hooper, 2009"Ministry of Magic" - Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, Pt. 1, (Original Motion Picture...

In this first part of a two-part episode, we look at the variety of ways that John Williams creates the musical world of Harry Potter. From school songs to Quidditch, from dragons to goblins, from ghosts to moving staircases, John Williams combines the rich late-romantic orchestral sound with the slightly odd notes resembling 20th century composers such as Stravinsky and Prokofiev to create a world that seems both familiar and different. He also expands in the second and third film from celeste and choir to adding instruments from the Baroque and Renaissance, combining new sounds with old. This episode focuses solely on the first three movies composed by John Williams.Host: Ruth MudgeMusic included in podcast:"The Arrival of Baby Harry" - Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack), music by John Williams, 2001"The Sorcerer's Apprentice" - The Sorcerer's Apprentice, performed by the Berlin Philharmonic & James Levine, music by Paul Dukas, 1987"Diagon Alley/The Gringotts Vault" - Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack), music by John Williams, 2001"Act 1, Scene III, The Street Awakens" - Romeo & Juliet, Op. 64, performed by the London Symphony Orchestra & Valery Gergiev, music by Sergei Prokofiev, 2010"Platform Nine-and-three-quarters/The Journey to Hogwarts" - Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack), music by John Williams, 2001"Hogwarts Forever!/The Moving Stairs" - Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack), music by John Williams, 2001"Entry into the Great Hall/The Banquet" - Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack), music by John Williams, 2001"The Quidditch Match" - Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack), music by John Williams, 2001"Christmas at Hogwarts" - Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack), music by John Williams, 2001"Olympic Fanfare and Theme" - Celebrating John Williams (Live at Walt Disney Concert Hall, Los Angeles 2019), performed by Los Angeles Philharmonic & Gustavo Dudamel, music by John Williams, 2019"The Norwegian Ridgeback/A Change of Seasons" - Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack), music by John Williams, 2001"Fawkes is Reborn" - Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack), music by John Williams & William Ross, 2002"Dueling the Basilisk" - Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack), music by John Williams & William Ross, 2002"Meeting Aragog" - Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack), music by John Williams & William Ross, 2002"Moaning Myrtle" - Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack), music by John Williams & William Ross, 2002"Knockturn Alley" - Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack), music by John Williams & William Ross, 2002"Pavana la Bataglia (Crumhorns & Ensemble)" - Dictionary of Medieval & Renaissance Instruments, performed by Christian Mendoza & Orchestra Antiqua Musica, music by Anonymous, 2002"Double Trouble" - Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack, music by John Williams, 2004"Secrets of the Castle" - Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack, music by John Williams, 2004"The Portrait Gallery" - Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack, music by John Williams, 2004"Quidditch, Third Year" - Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack, music by John Williams, 2004"Apparition on the...
