[HPFGU-Movie] New composer....why?

[Taryn Kimel]

My best bet would be that Williams simply didn't want to continue.  
Patrick Doyle is AMAZING, though, so don't worry too much.  He made his 
brilliant movie scoring debut with Henry V, an absolutely breathtaking 
score.  You can check out all his credits on imdb 
(http://imdb.com/name/nm0236462/).  He's done all of the films Kenneth 
Branagh directed, I believe, along with many others.  I've also heard 
that he WILL be including themes Williams established in the first three 
scores, so it sounds great to me.  While no one can match Williams for 
pure themework (Star Wars, Indiana Jones, Superman, Close Encounters, 
etc.), I personally think Doyle's work is better as a whole.
