| | |  "Phoenix" composer comments on film's score
Warner Bros. reports that they will release the soundtrack to Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix on Tuesday, July 10, the day before the film hits theatres in North America. The film was scored by award-winning British composer Nicholas Hooper, a friend of the film’s director David Yates.
According to Hooper: Quote:
I saw the scoring of this Harry Potter film as a great opportunity to work with such important themes on a grand scale. David Yates and I started early, even before filming started, working on such themes as Ministry of Magic, Umbridge, and Voldemort. However, as we came closer to the final cut, the music developed beyond what we had first imagined, so there was that inevitable race against time. My process is one of discovery, rather than having a specific plan. This can be nerve-wracking, but it has its creative benefits.
The soundtrack is nearly two hours long and was recorded at Abbey Road Studios in London. Along with the Chamber Orchestra of London, Hooper’s team included engineer Peter Cobbin who did the Lord of the Rings trilogy and conductor Alastair King of Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man’s Chest. Quote:
The team was the best around.. We had a complete rapport and I always felt that they knew what we were trying to achieve.
UPDATE: Here's a shot of the soundtrack's cover, courtesy of UHP!

This soundtrack sounds really cool because I loved the scores for LOTR and POTC. I'm also happy they've used my favourite OOTP picture for the cover. That's certainly one of the best they've had so far. I hope it's the DVD cover as well.

It makes sense to me now! When the trailer for the OotP movie came out and I watched and heard some of the background music I was like, "Hm...this sounds like Pirates." Def. buying.  | |

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

The snippets we've got so far are so good! Working around Williams's original concepts and this new composer's new ideas, I can't wait for the 10th!
