Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban movie score

John Williams is one of the most talented composers of ALL TIME! His genius is best illustrated in this score for the Harry Potter film, and it's easy to see why he is one of the world's greatest composers for film scores. "A Window to the Past" is my personal favorite, and its haunting flute translates well stylistically into the film. "Hedwig's Theme" (from the first film) is probably his most recognizable piece, and it's been adopted as the main theme throughout the entire series. Unfortunately, he didn't compose the latter films, but hopefully studio execs will realize their mistake in hiring Hooper and Doyle, and get Williams back on board for Deathly Hallows I and II.
