In the run-up to the
Oscars,
Variety has posted a list of the nominees for Best Score, which include John Williams for '
Prisoner of Azkaban'. John gives a little input on what he thinks of the soundtrack.
Quote:
"It differed from the first two films in that this was a darker, more mature subject. But like the others, it required something like two hours plus of very active and difficult orchestral scoring, balletic action, the light and dark side of magic, the atmosphere of the world and so on. The orchestral palette was very broad."
The Academy Awards will be presented on February 27th and they will air in the US on ABC at 8PM (EST). PoA is also nominated for a Best Visual Effects award.
