Fiction Film Soundtracks Pt.2

Various Film Genre Soundtracks

Harry Potter: The Prisoner Of Azkaban


This is one of my favourite scenes from this movie, the non diegetic sound in this scene begins with children singing the intro of the soundtrack, while the diegetic sounds of the scene, numerous horse and cart's trampling through a rainy and muddy embankment. This part of the scene is very enchanting and  magical and invokes memories & feelings from childhood. 

The Crescendo of this scene is when the scene changes to show the choir of children singing the song in an Auditorium which again invokes memories of childhood, this scene generally has a very magical enchanted feel to it. 

It was composed by John Williams during the film's production as he felt it to be a warm welcome back to Hogwarts. The song was sung by the London Oratory School Schola. This song's lyrics are taken directly from William Shakespear's Macbeth.
