| | Composer Conrad Pope talks involvement in Deathly Hallows: Part I musical score
Composer Conrad Pope updated his official Facebook on August 14, 2010 and again yesterday about his involvement in the creation of the Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part I score, which is currently being created by Alexandre Desplat.
Pope announced his orchestration of the score here, two weeks ago: Quote:
Am now in London, beginning orchestration on Harry Potter 7 for the ever-inventive Alexandre Desplat. Settling into the Sir Francis Goldshmidt rooms (yes,that IS the proper spelling) at Home House, Portman Square. (In my family however, these rooms are referred to as the LORD BROUCEK Suite—thanks, Paul). Looking forward to my fourth outing on Potter.
Pope updated yesterday, given a few teasers about the music and Harry's plights and flights in the first half of the Deathly Hallows films. Quote:
Working on Alexandre Desplat's new score for the next "Potter". Exciting, vigorous music! Harry flies, fights and conjures. All accompanied by the distinctive, definitely non-generic voice of Desplat. Those who love melodies, harmonies and emotions in their film scores should be pleased. Reminds one of the old days. Stay tuned.
There is no set release date for the Deathly Hallows: Part I soundtrack; we will update as soon as confirmation has been announced by Warner Bros. Thanks to UHP for the tip. |

My dream job is to play French Horn in the London Symphony. Then I could help record soundtracks for awesome movies like Harry Potter! Glad to hear they're right on schedule.

I'll take a "wait and see" approach, I'm still incredibly cheesed that John wasn't brought back.

John Williams was never going to come back for DH Part 1 in the first place. The filmmakers have said that they are only considering him for DH Part 2, as they want different composers for each part. Heyman said last year that if Williams' schedule is not full, then he will come back for Part 2.
Alexandre Desplat is a magnificent composer. He's been nominated for three Academy Awards, four BAFTAs, one Grammy and has won a Golden Globe award. I've listened to all of his scores and he is the best choice for Part 1 of Deathly Hallows, imo.
I have a feeling that Desplat, along with assistance from Conrad Pope, will make the best non-Williams score out of them all.

You should! This guy's helped orchestrate A LOT of John Williams scores, including the first three Harry Potter films. And just in case you don't know exactly what orchestration is, it means that he helps the composer choose which instruments should play on each tune, like the trumpets for the Quidditch music or the medieval instruments for "Prisoner of Azkaban". Always crucial to providing a great sound for the movie! yeeeeeeeeeeeeees |

The HP scores have always been great. Alexandre Desplat? He also did the Twilight scores. I like the melody/harmony/emoions idea, and POA was awesome with those medieval musical sounds.
