I have been listening to it for weeks too and also love it.

I must comment that when I first listened to it, especially track 3 
(Harry's Wondrous World, I think), there were parts that reminded me 
of tons of Williams' previous works.  At the time, I hadn't realized 
that he did the music, but as I heard remnants of Star Wars, E.T., 
and The Cowboys, I knew it just had to be him.

I really like all those songs too, especially the Change of Season 
part.

I go weak the knees at the sound of a French horn.. and so, although 
I'm not too fond of the melody in that song, I do like listening to 
the horn.  :)

> the short theme during the Mirror of Erised

I like that music too... I only wished they had called it Mirror of 
Erised instead of Library Scene (what kind of a silly title is 
that??).

Yes, very eerie sound at that point.  :)

So, do you think the normal Mirror of Erised music will be used in 
future whenever we see Harry's parents together???  Like a (Lily and 
James) Potter theme?

Oh, but I love the Rennaissance Faire feel to it.  :)

I find it very cute and could see it being a Ron theme.

So.. is the main theme (da dah da-da-dah da dah dah, dah da-da-dah da 
dah.....) just simply the movie (HPPS/SS) theme, or is it Harry's 
(character) theme, or is it a wizarding world theme??
