This cue is a suite of themes and pieces from Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2 (2023)...
Back in the forest, the strings enter quietly and low. As Narcissa goes to see if Harry is dead, the texture is slow, bare, and static. The low strings cut out, leaving the violins on a high note when...
The horns burst out in a nod to Neville as his theme gets a quick battle statement. The 3-note motif exclaims, then is interrupted by Harry revealing himself to be alive, shooting a spell at...
Back in the Great Hall, Neville wakes up from being blasted backwards by Voldemort. Trills in the winds, harp, and celesta give the listener a sense of his delirium. The brass play his theme ...
The strings aggressively pulse again, and the brass and percussion become as violent as Voldemort’s assaults. Harry taunts Voldemort and begins revealing that the true master of the...
Luna sits next to Neville in the Great Hall. The harp wistfully plays the beginning of her theme, with Neville’s theme answering quickly. The two of them have a quiet moment. The unused...
Over the held chord from the previous cue, a very slow Hedwig’s Theme plays over the words “19 Years Later”. A semi-Order of the Phoenix theme is played by a solo horn as the camera pans...

Dumbledore is revealed to the viewer aurally through an a cappella choir version of Fawkes the Phoenix. It holds at the top of the phrase, then the harp and celesta support the quiet and other-worldly mood. The choir continues on its own for quite some time, staying behind the dialogue...

The music from the end of Half-Blood Prince (2021) begins this cue, with the falling chords that played under the trio’s promise to stick together. Now, at the end, Harry is realizing that Hermione and Ron cannot come with him on this final journey. The family theme enters, and Hermione...

A solo english horn opens the cue quietly as Harry steps into the dark and empty office of the former headmasters. The Pensieve makes itself known to Harry, and he tosses it smoothly across the room. A horn solo accompanies...
Harry’s friends protect him from Pansy Parkinson’s threats. The Order of the Phoenix B theme begins the cue as they do so, showing the development from their beginnings as Dumbledore’s...
A reprisal of music from Sorcerer’s Stone (2001) opens this section of the score, accompanying Harry as he wanders down the halls near Ravenclaw tower. The 3-note motif enters appropriately...
The camera slowly reveals Ron standing in front of the entrance to the Chamber of Secrets. The Chamber of Secrets 2 theme plays while he speaks Parseltongue to open the door. The key...
The music dies down quickly after the Elder Wand revelation, and Harry gets moving quickly towards the Room of Requirement. The musical pulse continues, before there is a cut back to the...
Malfoy’s theme continues its appearances as he follows Harry into the Room of Requirement. A quick crescendo ends this shot as he moves towards the door. Inside the Room of Requirement...
The first minute and a half of this cue is sweeping long camera shots and battle music to accompany the action. The DH1 prologue music returns in the horns, and then the music turns...
The held E-flat from the previous cue waits until the trio is in the now-empty courtyard. A solo horn plays one last Deathly Hallows Part 1 prologue motif, and the rest of the upper string section...

The trio runs to the safety of a kind stranger’s Hogsmeade home, though the music is static and seeps in underneath their fleeing from the streets. When they enter the basement of this man’s house, woodwinds play in trios of parallel triads. This location is suspicious, but seems safe. They...

Very quick action music begins as a sharp cut takes us deep underground where the trio, Griphook, and Bogrod are on a cart barreling down the tracks towards the vault below. Many twists and turns give the music a chance to follow the action, with the Goblin Theme showing up to aid...
Posted September 10, 2023
The trio returns to Diagon Alley, this time to a distorted version of the original horn solo that played triumphantly over the first shot of Gringotts. This is immediately followed by an equally distorted group of chords in the horns, meant to reflect the original trumpet answers as Harry...
Posted September 3, 2023
The strings creep in quietly as Harry initiates his conversation with Ollivander. Triplet figures in the harp and celesta outline chord changes as the frail old man examines the first wand. The music stops with him, and shivers when he says “unyielding”. Upon the announcement that this was...

Like with most dialogue-driven scenes, this cue plays subtly underneath the entire discussion between Harry and Griphook, only becoming present when thematically necessary. The violins open the cue by themselves, not sure where the conversation will lead, then a solo flute plays part of...
Posted August 20, 2023
The strings crescendo and decrescendo from chord to chord as the finale of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 1 gets a short reprise. The 3-note motif comes in, moving quickly between keys to accommodate this truncated version of the scene. A big buildup plays under Voldemort raising...
