| | | John Williams to help score Half-Blood Prince?
Today the Boston Globe reported that John Williams is set to help write pieces for Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince. As it was previously said by Warner Brothers that Nicholas Hooper ( Order of the Phoenix composer) was to score it, we are not definitely sure of the extent of Mr. Williams' help.
Also, starting this Tuesday, Mr. Williams will be leading the Boston Pops in a concert series. The music is said to range from Indiana Jones to Star Wars. The paper then mentions that "actress Lynn Redgrave will join in each night to narrate what’s being called the "' Harry Potter Grande Suite.'"
Good luck on both, Mr. Williams!

That's so cool!
Imagine picking out the music for the scene where Malfoy stomps out Potter's face! and when he walks into the great hall late and the whole Slytherin table laughs at him and his broken nose! Thats what I call a job!

Maybe we'll see our kids come here one day.
That's the thing about Hogwarts.

That's great :] Imo, John Williams was the better man for the job. I mean, he thought of the ever-famous Hedwig's Theme. Who else could have done that? I think he should still be the composer & in charge of all musical things of the HP movies :] Just my opinion though

I love John Williams... and therefore the soundtrack will be awesome, no doubt  Although I didn't mind the other person either, and a collaboration should be really nice.
I've found HP is great music for studying... no words to distract you, but engaging enough that you don't fall asleep... hehe.
