Hi Ravendor viewers! We're Molly and Ben. You can label us any of the following: lifelong JWFans, pianists, musicians, or Ravenclaw and Gryffindor, respectively.
Several years ago when we met, we quickly discovered just how serious our collective John Williams obsession was. One of the first conversations we had was what we think John Williams would have done if he'd scored more Harry Potter films. Fast forward to now, and it looks like it was up to us to find out. We've been working on this project since 2018, and are so excited to share it with fellow fans!
