Yes. We just need a source to vent our frustrations while biding our time until the box sets arrive. 😆

I ordered HP and SL, still not fulfilled here.

Already sent it to you.

Is there a way we can go back and listen to the whole thing if, say, we just woke up? 

I'm pretty sure Williams would have objected to a track list full of 20 second cues. Doing it this way gives Williams a listening experience while also providing those with "finely tuned antenna" what they want.

I bet this is exactly what happened. I mean think about it. Things like Train to Hogwarts, Something Wicked Intro, and Double Trouble March would go together nicely in a track. And I'm sure there are some others that would fit nicely into other tracks.
 
Finally! Lol

And I think those samples also showed us that even when combining cues, we're going to get clean starts and endings for those who want to make their own chronological playlist. Everyone wins

I'm finally beginning to feel confident nothing was omitted on this set.

Putting some of the alternates in to the main body of the score could be how they got around having lots of very short cues.

I bet there's lots of hidden gems throughout. This is why we must stay positive!

That PoA cue was incredible. So many bits I never heard before!
Listening to this set will be like discovering old dusty photographs we didn't know existed.
Well, not dusty anymore: MM polished them  
 

I hope he is! Because it means alternates like The Train to Hogwarts V2 could be hidden in tracks like Trouble Takes Many Forms.

Hmm, I wonder why they included the alternate in the main program. That must mean Remembering Mother is hidden as well, plus six A Winter's Spell alternates!

I think @bollemanneke is probably correct.

After the unscored sequence with the Weasley twins explaining the map to Potter, Pettigrew's Theme kicks in as Harry sneaks into Hogsmeade. However, I think that's actually the following cue Brief Snow Scene (or The Three Broomsticks on the LLL).
 
A short deleted scene maybe? Or as @bollemanneke suggests it's an alternate for the opening of the following track (in which case the placement of an alternate here could provide some insight into MM's assembly ... and, hopefully, other alternates scattered amongst the film score presentation ).

Wow, pretty easy way to save yourself $150-odd dollars! The answer is obviously 2; it's a trick question, because William Ross scored Chamber of Secrets.
 

Here we go! Bring on the premiere of fourteen alternates of Remembering Mother!

Yeah, I had forgotten how good that one was! Totally didn't remember the gorgeous sad rendition on cello of the main theme.

@bollemanneke will lose it if they premiere Winter's Spell.

I have no idea what you're talking about...

Yeah, I'm gonna have to listen to the LLL version later now. Cracking piece of music though.

9 minute end credit suite from ID4 following commercials. Someone clearly needed a toilet break!

I wonder if there's.... any more... shout-outs... coming up very soon that might want to be recorded?

Did they just...run a movie clip...on a radio show?

Shout-out!
