MOVIE Music: Hedwig's Theme

[malabud at ...]

I was browsing JWFan.Net, a John Williams fansite, when I noticed 
that they've set up a new, reorganized Harry Potter section. This 
section has lots of information about the soundtrack, including the 
CD release date of Oct. 30, comments from Williams, recording session 
info, reports and opinions on released music, etc. They've even got a 
links page with a link to HPforGrownups! Here's the link to the main 
page:

The HP news item should be near the top.

Also, the Leaky Cauldron has a link to an MP3 of a four-minute 
concert version of "Hedwig's Theme". Williams conducted this at his 
recent Tanglewood concert. You can hear the occasional cough and 
applause at the end of the MP3, but it comes across pretty clear, 
albeit a bit soft.

Again, the MP3 link should be near the top of the recent news section.

Incidentally, the MP3 comes from a JWFan.Net message board. The 
reviews over there are all positive. They really know Williams and 
his music and they seem to be very enthusiastic about what they've 
heard.
