igger6 772 Posted June 15, 2017 Share Posted June 15, 2017 Just saw a press release for this new nighttime show at Universal Orlando. It claims the score is a "new arrangement" by John Williams. Sounds mostly like a needle-drop of "Hedwig," "Buckbeak," and maybe parts of "Prologue," but there's a section around 2:20 or so that I don't recognize. I highly doubt it's new, but can anyone place this? Here's the aforementioned press release: http://www.upi.com/Entertainment_News/2017/05/19/Nighttime-Lights-at-Hogwarts-Castle-to-open-at-Universal-Studios-Hollywood-June-23/2561495194542/ Will 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Psycho Pianist 216 Posted June 16, 2017 Share Posted June 16, 2017 Also this is only for now at Hollywood's HPWW. I always thought that repeated timpani hit in the PoA werewolf cue was perhaps one of the weaker parts of that score. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crumbs 12,972 Posted June 17, 2017 Share Posted June 17, 2017 And yet it's still better than anything in the five scores that followed. Marcus 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post igger6 772 Posted June 17, 2017 Author Popular Post Share Posted June 17, 2017 What an odd choice for a nighttime show soundtrack. Iconic theme, iconic theme, "Werewolf Scene," iconic theme, iconic theme. Will, The Psycho Pianist and Gruesome Son of a Bitch 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gruesome Son of a Bitch 6,479 Posted June 18, 2017 Share Posted June 18, 2017 Sounds like something Williams would do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
