There are so many musical tracks for the world of Harry Potter that even though I had covered relationships, Hedwig's Theme, and characters in previous podcasts, there were still so many more that set the world of Harry Potter. Since John Williams composed music for the first three movies, he set the world with an orchestral sound, using choir and celeste to accentuate the magical aspect. But he wasn't content to leave it there, using older Renaissance instruments and Celtic music to give it a grounding in Old England, suggesting that this magical world had been around for a long time. Add a little bit of jazz in the 3rd film and there is so much to explore in the world that John Williams created for Harry Potter.
