quidditch. We certainly hear A Window To The Past more as a theme for Sirius, himself, than we hear what we have "Sirius Black motif". For instance when Sirius first talks with Harry after they've left the Whomping Willow and reminisces about his days at school and his hope to return to Hogwarts as a free man (a very touching scene), the music playing there, Window To The Past. Whenever he flies away with Buckbeak, the same music. I think it can be argued that A Window To The Past serves as a theme not only linking Harry to his parents, but also a theme for Sirius Black, who serves as the last remaining link to any family Harry has.

identified a correlation between the two melodic motifs, let alone that A Window To The Past is any expansion. Is there a reference somewhere that states this, or was this posted at the whim of a previous user? If there is no reference, can it be discussed at until some sort of consensus is reached? I found the passage in question interesting seeing as I, personally, never found the two passages related, so I was curious what anyone else thought?

I just had a minor question that's really not of any relative importance. Here's the passage in question: "An poignant expansion of Family Portrait theme,..." I've listened to both tracks back to several times (for Family Portrait, I listened to the second half of track 10 on PoS album), and have not

I see no real basis for the statement "The music from Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone is probably one of the most adapted score in the history of movie music. The adaptations include a jazz version of the principal themes." The availability of a jazz version hardly makes this "one of the

Benjamin Jay Cooper son of Sandra Elizabeth Cooper and Peter James Cooper being friends of Kerry And Borris wrote this song on his toy Glockenspiel 7 key. Out the front of Kerry and Borris's house which is two doors down from Benjamin Jay Cooper's home in Kambah. All of the kids in the street

Furthermore, I also think what's reference here is as "Sirius Black motif" should probably be relabeled as "The Dark Omen" motif. The motif used in the Knight Bus and Quidditch Third Year is used whenever the Grim is spotted, either Sirius in dog form, or its image in the clouds while playing

Should James Newton Howard's score to Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them be included in this page? They are part of the same musical universe since Howard references Hedwig's Theme in his score. Would this inclusion constitute changing the page's title?

I can't see them as closely related either. Maybe the tone is vaguely similar, but the two appear to be otherwise different. Several parts of A Window to the Past seem much more closely related to Double Trouble than the Family Portrait theme.
379:. It is not a song like those of the Yule Ball and it is not a melody we hear just once in the movie. It is a recurent melodic idea associated with something of more importance: a character, an emotion, a place, etc. So, the "Knight Bus" is 511:
witnessed the song being created after only two attempts Benjamin made the song and Borris asked him to write it down and get a copy of it so the kids and he could play it. Benjamin said you can play it but it is my song I made it!

was the real author and creator of the song. Who created this song in Canberra, A.C.T at the age of five to eight years old. Two doors down from his own home at 10 Morant Circuit, Kambah, A.C.T, Australia.

Neighbours Tom Marrys son, Kerry and Borris plus their daughter Robbin for example were some of the witnesses of this song creation. Therefore, Benjamin is the true creator of the song and not Jhon Williams

In addition to being used whenever Harry is reminded of his parents in the third film, I also thought it was used as a more sentimental theme for Sirius Black since he represented the only family Harry has

Agreed. I've removed the line. I think that anyone who wants to assert that something is "probably" true needs a little more evidence before it belongs on the wiki.
