All Hail Patrick Doyle!!!!! Hi all!! Well what a breath of fresh air this was , firstly i have to say i did not like the new potter soundtrack but now i think it is by far the best one ,its much more varied than williams previous.

It is as good as if Williams himself had done it.

There is a variety of tones here. From light waltzs, to drama, to to action. A nice variety that compliments the constant mood changes of hte film. The only negative point is... more info
